“…The R2 value for organizational creativity and financial performance is 0.227 and 0.163, respectively ( Fig. 2 ), considered acceptable [ 62 , 63 ]. These findings suggest that the research models have moderate predictive power and are suitable for predicting SMEs' creativity and financial performance.…”

“…In the oil and gas sector, safety is one of the essential things that needs to get high attention [ 23 ] due to road crashes accelerating daily. Oil and gas tanker drivers performance is deemed to be fulfilled an obligation and duties [ [24] , [25] , [26] ]. Driving performance is attention [ 27 ]; Drivers frequently split their attention between driving tasks like lane position management and speed and other activities like dealing with dashboard electronics.…”
“…Moreover, Krishnan et al ( 17 ) indicated a significant relationship between psychological risk factors and fatigue among drivers of oil and gas tankers. Besides, in their survey study, Al-Mekhlafi et al ( 18 ) demonstrated that work schedules and activities lead to fatigue which will impact driving performance ( 19 ). However, previously published studies are limited to a survey approach.…”
IntroductionDriving fatigue has been shown to increase the risk of accidents and potentially fatal crashes. Fatigue is a serious risk that some drivers do not take seriously. Previous studies investigated the effects of driving fatigue in the Malaysian oil and gas transportation industry by employing survey questionnaires. However, they did not explain the behavior of fatigue. Besides, these results required validation by a more reliable method that can describe how fatigue occurs.MethodsThus, in this study, we used the Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT-192) and a short survey to address driving fatigue behavior and identify the influences of driving fatigue on driving performance in real life (on the road) with actual oil and gas tanker drivers. The total participants in the experimental study were 58 drivers.ResultsFor the analysis, a Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test, Z value and Spearman’s rho were used to measure the significant difference between the pre and post-tests of PVT and the correlation between the fatigue variables and driving performance.DiscussionDuring the experiment’s first and second days, this study’s results indicated that driving fatigue gradually escalated. Likewise, there was a negative correlation based on the test of the relationship between the PVT data and the driving performance survey data. Additionally, the drivers suffer from accumulative fatigue, which requires more effort from the transportation company management to promote the drivers awareness of fatigue consequences.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
