越来越多的支持道路交通违法行为和事故责任之间的关系,导致研究重点的动机因素,促进这些行为;在研究1中,一个大样本的年轻(17-40岁)的司机被要求完成驾驶员行为问卷(DBQ;帕克,原因,曼斯特德,和Stradling,1995年)。因素分析显示3个因素:错误,高速公路代码的违规行为,更人际侵略性的违规行为。在研究2中,招募了一个较小的样本(17-70岁)的司机,以进一步研究不同类型的违规行为之间的区别,也影响预测行为的作用。因素分析的修改DBQ显示3种类型的违规。积极影响的措施被认为是很好的预测所有3种违规类型。讨论的重点是社会心理和应用的影响。
Increasing support for the relationship between road traffic violations and accident liability has led to research focusing on the motivational factors that promote these behaviors; In Study 1, a large sample of young (17-40 years) drivers were asked to complete the Driver Behavior Questionnaire (DBQ; Parker, Reason, Manstead, & Stradling, 1995). Factor analysis revealed 3 factors: errors, highway code violations, and more interpersonally aggressive violations. In Study 2, a smaller sample of drivers was recruited (17-70 years) to investigate further this distinction between different types of violation and also the role of affect in predicting behavior. Factor analysis of a modified DBQ revealed 3 types of violation. Measures of positive affect were found to be good predictors of all 3 violation types. Discussion focuses on social psychological and applied implications.
