situations with overt latent hazards. This means that both young novice drivers and older novice drivers relatively often looked at other road users that could start to act dangerously, but did not consider these other road users as potentially dangerous enough to mention them. It could be that fixations on other road users were more often the result of bottom-up processes and top-down processes not related to hazard detection than topdown processes related to hazard perception for both young learner drivers and older learner drivers than for experienced drivers. This is in support of hypothesis 6 in Section 4.1.8 that novice drivers (both young and older) more often fixate overt latent hazards without having recognized and predicted the overt latent hazard than experienced drivers do (see for a discussion about this topic the next sub-section). Note also that in around 5% of the cases the latent hazard, was mentioned but not fixated. According to Knudsen’s functional attention model (2007), fixations on a latent hazard are not always necessary to recognize a latent hazard. The possibility of recognizing a latent hazard without explicitly having fixated it is represented in Figure 4.1 of Section 4.1.6 by the black arrow that goes straight from working memory to sensitivity control. It could also be that when asked to think about what had happened in the video clip after they have watched it, participants may realize there was a latent hazard they did not detect (i.e. did not fixate) and recognized while they watched the video clip. There was a significant relationship between the number of fixated covert latent hazards and the number of mentioned covert latent hazard, r = .44, p < .01. The relationships were almost the same for novice learner drivers, older learner drivers and experienced drivers. There was also a significant relationship between the number of fixated overt latent hazards and the mentioned overt latent hazards, r = .42, p < .01. This relationship was stronger for young learner drivers (r = .48) than for older learner drivers (r = .24) and experienced drivers (r = .20). The relatively high percentages of the category 'fixated, but not mentioned' in Table 4.3 probably explains that the correlations between fixated latent hazards and mentioned latent hazards were not higher. When the results presented in Table 4.1 (percentages fixated latent hazards) are compared with the results presented in Table 4.2 (percentages mentioned latent hazards), it turns out that young learner drivers and older learner drivers in all situations (both covert and overt) more often fixated latent hazards than mentioned latent hazards. For experienced drivers in none of the situations with covert latent hazards the percentage mentioned covert 154
