目的:本研究的目的是增加对里程焦虑现象的认识,并确定电池电动汽车(BEV)的实践经验在多大程度上降低了不同程度的里程焦虑。背景:有限的航程对Bev用户来说是一个挑战。在这种情况下,一个经常被讨论的现象是里程焦虑。有一些证据表明,里程焦虑可能只对没有经验的Bev司机来说是一个问题,因此,随着实践经验的增加,焦虑可能会减轻。方法:我们比较了12名有高Bev驾驶经验(M=60,500公里)的驾驶者和12名从未驾驶过Bev的驾驶者。试驾被设计为导致关键里程情况(剩余里程和行程长度)。我们在不同的水平(认知、情绪和行为)上考察了里程评估和里程压力(即里程焦虑)。结果:有经验的Bev司机比没有经验的Bev司机表现出更少的负面里程评估和里程焦虑,除了一个变量外,所有变量都显示出显著的、强烈的影响。结论:因此,Bev驾驶经验(定义为Bev驾驶的绝对里程)似乎是预测较少里程焦虑的一个重要变量。应用:为了减少Bev驾驶员的里程焦虑,即使在紧急的里程情况下,提高学习过程的效率和效果也很重要。
Objective: The objective of the present research was to increase understanding of the phenomenon of range anxiety and to determine the degree to which practical experience with battery electric vehicles (BEVs) reduces different levels of range anxiety. Background: Limited range is a challenge for BEV users. A frequently discussed phenomenon in this context is range anxiety. There is some evidence suggesting that range anxiety might be a problem only for inexperienced BEV drivers and, therefore, might decrease with practical experience. Method: We compared 12 motorists with high BEV driving experience (M = 60,500 km) with 12 motorists who had never driven a BEV before. The test drive was designed to lead to a critical range situation (remaining range < trip length). We examined range appraisal and range stress (i.e., range anxiety) on different levels (cognitive, emotional, and behavioral). Results: Experienced BEV drivers exhibited less negative range appraisal and range anxiety than inexperienced BEV drivers, revealing significant, strong effects for all but one variable. Conclusion: Hence, BEV driving experience (defined as absolute kilometers driven with a BEV) seems to be one important variable that predicts less range anxiety. Application: In order to reduce range anxiety in BEV drivers even when there is a critical range situation, it is important to increase efficiency and effectiveness of the learning process.
