压力与道路安全之间的关系已经研究了很多年，但总体压力及其与人格的联合作用对驾驶行为的影响在以往的研究中很少受到关注。本研究旨在探讨整体压力与不同人格特质对驾驶行为的影响。242名司机完成了感知压力量表-10（PSS-10），杜拉危险驾驶指数（DDDI），以及与愤怒，感觉寻求和利他主义相关的几个人格特质量表。结果表明，知觉压力和感觉寻求与消极认知/情绪驾驶（NCED）、攻击性驾驶（AD）、危险驾驶（RD）和酒后驾驶（DD）4种危险驾驶行为类型存在显著相关。此外，愤怒与负性认知/情绪驾驶、攻击性驾驶和危险驾驶呈正相关，利他主义与攻击性驾驶和酒后驾驶呈负相关。运用分层多元回归分析人格特质的中介作用，结果表明愤怒在压力与危险驾驶行为之间起中介作用，尤其是对消极认知/情绪驾驶和攻击性驾驶的中介作用更强。总的来说，结果表明，压力是一个重要的因素，可以影响人们的驾驶行为，但人格特质调解压力对驾驶行为的影响。本研究的结果可应用于开发压力和愤怒管理的干预方案，以提高驾驶员管理情绪思维和调整其行为的能力。(C)2014爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
The relationship between stress and road safety has been studied for many years, but the effect of global stress and its joint effect with personality on driving behavior have received little attention in previous studies. This study aimed to elucidate the impact of global stress and various personality traits on driving behavior. 242 drivers completed the Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10), the Dula Dangerous Driving Index (DDDI), and several personality trait scales related to anger, sensation seeking, and altruism. The results showed that perceived stress and sensation seeking were significantly correlated with the four subcategories of dangerous driving behavior, namely, negative cognitive/emotional driving (NCED), aggressive driving (AD), risky driving (RD), and drunk driving (DD). Moreover, anger was positively correlated with negative cognitive/emotional driving, aggressive driving, and risky driving, and altruism was negatively correlated with aggressive driving and drunk driving. Hierarchical multiple regressions were applied to analyze the mediating effect of personality traits, and the results showed that anger mediated the relationship between stress and dangerous driving behavior and that this mediating role was especially strong for negative cognitive/emotional driving and aggressive driving. Collectively, the results showed that stress is an important factor that can affect people's driving behavior but that personality traits mediate the effect of stress on driving behavior. The findings from this study regarding the relationship among stress, anger, and dangerous driving behavior could be applied in the development of intervention programs for stress and anger management in order to improve drivers' ability to manage emotional thoughts and adjust their behavior on the road.
