This study presents an investigation of the effects of peer attitude, gender, and blood alcohol level on driving performance using a driving simulator. The subjects were 18 male and 18 female social drinkers from the general population, aged 18-25, and holding a current drivers' licence. Subjects were randomly assigned to pro or against drinking driving conditions and tested at different blood alcohol levels. The results revealed that subjects in the for drinking driving condition perceived themselves to be more capable than they actually were and drove increasingly faster and made more mistakes than subjects in the against drinking driving condition when under the influence of alcohol. Significant sex differences were observed only for performance on the driving simulator. Males, in the main, engaged in more dangerous driving and risk taking in simulated driving conditions than females.
本研究使用驾驶模拟器，对同伴态度、性别和血液酒精水平对驾驶性能的影响进行了调查。研究对象是18名男性和18名女性社会饮酒者，他们来自普通人群，年龄在18至25岁之间，持有现行驾照。研究对象被随机分配到支持或反对酒后驾车的情境中，并在不同的血液酒精水平下接受测试。结果显示，在酒精影响下，处于支持酒后驾车情境中的研究对象认为自己比实际更有能力，驾驶速度越来越快，且比处于反对酒后驾车情境中的研究对象犯更多错误。仅在驾驶模拟器的性能方面观察到显著的性别差异。总体而言，在模拟驾驶情境中，男性比女性更倾向于进行危险驾驶和冒险行为。
