In each of the four studies performed the experimenters placed computerized software and used a driving simulator equipped with vehicle dynamics, traffic scenarios and realistic road and surface conditions. The studies also had dual task conditions to such has having conversations on the phone with another individual to help further prove the hypothesis. In the first study the researchers focused on the conditionality probability of participants recognizing objects that they had been fixated on while driving. In this first study Strayer and Drews concluded that the data collected was consistent with the hypothesis reiterating the fact that cell phone conversations and other hands free devices disrupts performance. Continuously in the second study the researchers focused on the extent of engaging in cell phone conversations during
