The aims of this study were to provide further evidence of validity and reliability for the Driving Anger Expression Inventory (DAX) French adaptation (Villieux & Delhomme, 2008, Le Travail Humain, 71(4), 359-384) and to investigate the relationships between driving anger, how people express their anger while driving, and traffic violations among young drivers in France.
The French adaptations of the DAX, of the Driving Anger Scale (DAS), and of the Extended Violations Scale were administered to a sample of 314 drivers.
Confirmatory factor analysis of the French DAX items yielded a three factors solution with 11 items, which obtained better goodness-of-fit to the data. Cronbach α reliabilities for DAX factors ranged from .71 to .79. Aggressive forms of anger expression correlated positively with driving anger and traffic violations whereas the 'Adaptive/Constructive Expression' factor correlated negatively with these variables.
Globally, our results replicated earlier findings and showed that DAX factors are useful predictors of self reported violations and complement established measures like the DAS.
Implications for driver education and interventions were examined.
本研究旨在进一步验证 Villieux 和 Delhomme（2008 年，《人类工作》，71（4），359-384）对驾驶愤怒表达量表（DAX）法语改编本的有效性和可靠性，并探讨法国年轻驾驶员的驾驶愤怒、驾驶时愤怒表达方式与交通违规之间的关系。
对 314 名驾驶员进行了 DAX、驾驶愤怒量表（DAS）和扩展违规量表的法语改编版测试。
对 DAX 项目的验证性因素分析得出了一个包含 11 个项目的三因素解决方案，该方案对数据的拟合度更好。DAX 因子的 Cronbach α 信度范围在.71 到.79 之间。愤怒的攻击性表达与驾驶愤怒和交通违规呈正相关，而“适应性/建设性表达”因子与这些变量呈负相关。
总体而言，我们的研究结果复制了早期的研究结果，表明 DAX 因子是自我报告违规行为的有用预测指标，补充了 DAS 等既定的测量方法。
考察了对驾驶员教育和干预的影响。
