GUILLET Laurent

Laurent Guillet is an assistant professor at the Université Bretagne Sud. His research activities focus on human behavior in professional contexts. 

He obtained his PhD degree in social health psychology in 2002 from the University of Nantes. His works were first devoted to stress assessment in accidental situations, and then in situations involving various occupational stressors. These studies led to model the cognitive activity of operators belonging to different target populations.
 
He was hired by the Université Bretagne Sud in 2004, at a time when the research team investigated risk of maritime activities. He worked for a few years on the topics of risk perception among seafarers and stress in survival situations.
 

Subsequently, building on his work in stress management, he has expanded his research into the field of cyber defense. This involves studying the behavior of cyber defenders, identifying the existence of shared mental models, determining the impact of stress and mental load on team functioning and performance, and designing systems to better integrate digital hygiene guidelines.

He is also developing a research focus on the study of acceptability and adoption. This focus involves applying a psycho-ergonomic approach to identify the constraints and levers that promote the acceptability of an innovation prior to design and its adoption after design. This approach is being implemented in the Interreg INDIGO project. The goal is to promote acceptance of a new biodegradable fishing gear prior to its design and then conduct user tests following the development of a prototype. As a continuation of this project, he is participating in the FILL project (Innovative Net for Mussel Cultivation).
