摘　　要：The aim of this study was to explore the effectiveness of behavioral evaluation measures for predicting drivers＇ subjective drowsiness. Behavioral measures included neck bending angle, back pressure, foot pressure, COP （center of pressure） movement on sitting surface and tracking error in driving simulator task. Drowsy states were predicted by means of the multinomial logistic regression model where behavioral measures and subjective evaluation of drowsiness corresponded to independent variables and a dependent variable, respectively. First, we compared the effectiveness of two methods （correlation coefficient-based method and odds ratio-based method） for determining the order of entering behavioral measures into the prediction model. It was found that the prediction accuracy did not differ between both methods. Second, the prediction accuracy was compared among the numbers of behavioral measures. The prediction accuracy did not differ among four, five and six behavioral measures and it was concluded that entering at least four behavioral measures into the prediction model is enough to achieve higher prediction accuracy. Third, the prediction accuracy was compared between the strongly drowsy and the weakly drowsy groups. The prediction accuracy differed between the two groups and the proposed method was effective under the condition where drowsiness was induced to a larger extent.
