Resumen
[EN]Some drivers experience Simulator Adaptation Syndrome (SAS), a condition in which nausea, disorien tation, dizziness, headache, and difficulty focusing, are exhibited when driving in a simulator. To reduce
this syndrome, we investigated the efficacy of tactile stimulation (TS) on mitigating Simulator Adaptation
Syndrome (SAS) in a driving simulation. Fifteen drivers (eight women; mean age ¼ 24.07 years)
participated in this experiment. We compared the total scores of the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire
(SSQ) across two stimulation conditions (TS condition and no stimulation condition as a baseline mea sure). The experimental outcomes revealed that TS seemed to decrease SAS due to attentional distraction
from the symptoms and not because of an improvement in balance ability
