To investigate the psychological load characteristics of drivers on interchange ramp curves, an naturalistic driving test was conducted with 38 participants in a high-density interchange group in Chongqing. The PhysioLAB physiological monitoring system was used to collect electrocardiogram (ECG) data from drivers navigating the ramp curves. Three typical ramps were taken as research objects, a factor analysis model was established based on heart rate (HR), heart rate increment (HRI), and heart rate variability[root mean square of the difference between adjacent normal cardiac cycles(RMSSD) and standard deviation of RR intervals for all sinus heartbeats(SDNN)] to analyze the variations in psychological load and influencing factors for drivers on different ramp curves. The results indicate that the average heart rate for drivers on various ramp scenarios is found to range from 60 to 120 beats per minute, with heart rate increments between 3% and 15%. Psychological load on right-turn ramps is more dispersed, while on left-turn and circular ramps, it is more concentrated, with higher load observed on circular ramps. Differences in psychological load are noted among drivers of different styles and genders. Left-turn ramps impact female drivers more, and right-turn ramps impact aggressive drivers more. Psychological load decreases with increased familiarity and increases with larger turning angles. More ramp lanes lead to more vehicle weaving, increasing psychological load. A negative correlation is observed between psychological load and the radius of right-turn ramps, with no linear relationship for left-turn and circular ramps. Driving on consecutive circular ramps increases psychological load.
