The present study aimed to adapt the Attitudes and Beliefs about Sleepy Driving Scale (ABSDS) to a sample of Chinese drivers and to examine its reliability and validity.
Five hundred and twenty drivers aged 18 to 56 years old were asked to complete the ABSDS and a validated Chinese version of the Prosocial and Aggressive Driving Inventory.
The results showed that the final Chinese version of the ABSDS contained 7 items with satisfactory reliability. Second, significant gender differences were found in attitude towards sleepy driving, with female drivers scoring higher than male drivers. Third, significant correlations between ABSDS score and prosocial and aggressive driving behaviours were found. More importantly, ABSDS score can significantly predict drivers' prosocial driving behaviours. Moreover, ABSDS score can significantly predict drivers' violation involvement and accident involvement.
The findings supported the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the ABSDS and suggested that it can be used to assess drivers' attitudes and beliefs about sleepy driving in China.
本研究旨在将睡眠驾驶态度和信念量表（ABSDS）适用于中国驾驶员样本，并检验其信度和效度。
520 名 18 至 56 岁的驾驶员被要求完成 ABSDS 和经过验证的中文版亲社会和攻击性驾驶清单。
结果表明，ABSDS 的最终中文版包含 7 个项目，具有令人满意的可靠性。其次，在对困倦驾驶的态度方面存在显著的性别差异，女性驾驶员的得分高于男性驾驶员。第三，在 ABSDS 得分与亲社会和攻击性驾驶行为之间存在显著的相关性。更重要的是，ABSDS 得分可以显著预测驾驶员的亲社会驾驶行为。此外，ABSDS 得分可以显著预测驾驶员的违法行为和事故参与。
研究结果支持中文版 ABSDS 的心理测量特性，并表明它可用于评估中国驾驶员对困倦驾驶的态度和信念。
