5090.4 Vigilance and attention, which distinction? Evidences from the road safety field, Pierre
Van Elslande, French National Institute for Transport and Safety Research, France
The notions of Vigilance and Attention are subjects to variations in their definition, depending on
the field in which they are used. These questions are recognized to play an important role in
accident occurring. Nevertheless, in this field, problems tend to be analyzed in a very global way,
following a too generic problematic which does not allow a clear comprehension of the process
involved. The present paper is aimed at apprehending the different aspects of the problems in hand
by means of an analysis of multidisciplinary accident data following a model of human function
failures inscribed inside typical accident-generating scenarios.

5091.2 Impact of worry on health-related quality of life in native Iranian elders, Seyed Reza
Mazloum, Faculty Member, Iran
In this study the relationship between worry and quality of life was examined in 1548 elders. They
completed questionnaires worry domains (WDQ) and Rand-36 Health Survey (HRQOL). The
results showed that 75% of subjects have high worry scores, 64% poor HRQOL scores, with a
significant negative correlation between two scores. Despite statistical controlling of
sociodemographic factors, high WDQ scores was associated with increased odds of poor
emotional status (OR=1.84), physical functioning (OR=2.56), general health perceptions
(OR=1.65), emotional well-being (OR=2.5) and mental health (OR=2.8). Results suggest that high
worry levels may increase the risk of poor quality of life in elders.
