IMPACT ON INDUSTRY
Preventing speed-related crashes could reduce costs and improve efficiency in the transportation industry.
OBJECTIVE
This research examined the psychosocial and personality predictors of observed speeding among young drivers.
METHOD
Survey and driving data were collected from 42 newly-licensed teenage drivers during the first 18months of licensure. Speeding (i.e., driving 10mph over the speed limit; about 16km/h) was assessed by comparing speed data collected with recording systems installed in participants' vehicles with posted speed limits.
RESULTS
Speeding was correlated with elevated g-force event rates (r=0.335, pb0.05), increased over time, and predicted by day vs. night trips, higher sensation seeking, substance use, tolerance of deviance, susceptibility to peer pressure, and number of risky friends. Perceived risk was a significant mediator of the association between speeding and risky friends.
CONCLUSION
The findings support the contention that social norms may influence teenage speeding behavior and this relationship may operate through perceived risk.
对产业的影响
预防与速度相关的车祸,可能降低运输业成本并提高效率。
目的
本研究考察了年轻驾驶员中观察到的超速驾驶的心理社会和人格预测因素。
方法
在获得驾照的最初 18 个月中,对 42 名新获得驾照的青少年驾驶员进行了调查和驾驶数据收集。通过将参与者车辆中安装的记录系统收集的速度数据与公布的限速进行比较,评估超速(即,超过限速 10 英里/小时;约 16 公里/小时)的情况。
结果
超速与较高的 g 力事件率(r=0.335,pb0.05)相关,且随着时间的推移而增加,并可由日间与夜间的出行、较高的感觉寻求、物质使用、对偏差的容忍度、易受同伴压力的影响以及危险朋友的数量来预测。感知风险是超速与危险朋友之间关联的重要中介变量。
结论
研究结果支持这样一种观点,即社会规范可能会影响青少年的超速行为,而这种关系可能是通过感知风险来运作的。
