Methods and systems are provided for assisting operation of a vehicle by monitoring a physiological state of an operator and automatically initiating a remedial action responsive to a change in the physiological state. One method involves determining a biometric indication of the current physiological state based on measurement data from one or more sensing devices, determining an activity-based indication of the current physiological state based on output signals from one or more user interface elements and determining an aggregate indicator of the current physiological state as a function of the biometric indication and the activity-based indication using one or more weighting factors that vary during operation of the vehicle. One or more remedial actions are automatically initiated based on the aggregate indicator, for example, in response to a change in physiological state indicated by the value of the aggregate indicator.
