How drivers perceive traffic? How they behave in traffic of Turkey and China?
Uzumcuoglu, Yesim; Özkan, Türker; Wu, Chaozhong; Zhang, Hui (Elsevier BV, 2019-07-01)
© 2019 Elsevier LtdRoad traffic accidents/fatalities and driver behaviors show regional differences. It is assumed that the perceived traffic climate in a given context is closely related to driver behaviors. In the current study, this assumption was tested cross-culturally for the first time. The aim was to compare the perceived traffic climate and driver behaviors between Turkey and China. Also, the relationships between traffic climate and driver behaviors in Turkey and China were investigated. In the st...
Lifestyle traits as predictors of driving behaviour in urban areas of Greece
Chliaoutakis, JE; Koukouli, S; Lajunen, T; Tzamalouka, G (Elsevier BV, 2005-11-01)
The aim of this study was to examine possible links between different lifestyle patterns and aberrant driver's behaviour. Personal interviews were conducted in a representative sample of 324 adults (18-65), all residents of Crete. Aberrant driver's behaviour was assessed by the 'driver behaviour questionnaire' (DBQ). Also to measure different dimensions of lifestyle, first, a 26-items questionnaire was used, and second, three questions measuring 'driving without destination', related in previous findings wi...

Participants were 132 driving instructors (108 male and 24 female). In order to measure organizational safety strategi...

Ge, Yan; Qu, Weina; Zhou, Mu; Özkan, Türker; Bicaksiz, Pinar; Zhang, Kan (Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01)
Impulsivity plays an important role in aberrant driving behavior and crash involvement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Impulsive Driver Behavior Scale (IDBS, Bicaksiz & Ozkan, 2016a) with a Chinese sample. Two hundred and ninety-nine drivers completed the Chinese version of the Impulsive Driver Behavior Scale, the Driver Behavior Questionnaire, the Big Five Inventory and some social-demographic and traffic violation items. A confirmatory factor analysis indicat...
Traffic climate and driver behaviors: Explicit and implicit measures
Uzumcuoglu, Yeom; Özkan, Türker (Elsevier BV, 2019-04-01)
Traffic climate is about the road users' attitudes towards traffic context and it is assumed that perceived traffic climate might influence drivers' behaviors. In the literature, traffic climate was measured only by using self-report questionnaires. People might give biased responses to self-report measures due to social desirability. The aim of the current study was to develop the first implicit measure for traffic climate. In addition, both implicit and explicit attitudes towards traffic climate and their...
