Abstract

Technology has become important in solving the problem of speeding. One technological advancement aimed at overcoming the speeding problem is the Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) system. Although the ISA systems enhance traffic safety, the standard role of drivers in driving is challenged by these systems. Therefore, driver acceptance of such systems is essential for their implementation, which may be dependent on the country’s driving climate and other characteristics, such as road fatality rates and gross national income. The current study therefore examines the utility of an integrative model of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and the Prototype Willingness Model (PWM), which are two popular decision-making frameworks, comparing participants from two different countries which may differ in their driving climate and which is important to the external validity of the results. This study is the first to test this model in two countries. A total of 334 drivers from Türkiye and 359 drivers from Israel completed a questionnaire by way of an online link. The results show that the integrative model explains the highest variance in preference for using the informative type of the ISA in both countries. In addition, the model explains a higher variance in preference for using the informative and intervening types of the ISA in Israel and the supportive type of the ISA in Türkiye. Although the integrative model differed between the two countries, intention was the strongest predictor of preference in using all types of the ISA. However, as control of the system increases, the social-reactive path becomes more prominent in Türkiye, whereas the reasoned path becomes significant in Israel. Finally, attitude is an additional important predictor of preference in Israel, whereas prototype perceptions are more prominent in Türkiye. The results and the implications are discussed in light of the literature.

在土耳其和以色列，社会反应性和/或理性地接受智能速度适应系统

技术在解决超速问题方面已经变得很重要。一项旨在克服超速问题的技术进步是智能速度适应（ISA）系统。虽然ISA系统提高了交通安全，但驾驶员在驾驶中的标准角色受到了这些系统的挑战。因此，驾驶员对此类系统的接受对于其实施至关重要，这可能取决于该国的驾驶气候和其他特征，例如道路死亡率和国民总收入。因此，本研究考察了计划行为理论（TPB）和原型意愿模型（PWM）这两种流行的决策框架的综合模型的效用，比较了来自两个不同国家的参与者，他们的驾驶气候可能不同，这对结果的外部有效性很重要。这项研究是第一次在两个国家测试这种模式。共有334名来自土耳其的司机和359名来自以色列的司机通过在线链接完成了一份调查问卷。结果表明，综合模型解释了两国在使用ISA信息类型偏好上的最大差异。此外，该模型解释了以色列使用信息性和干预型ISA和以色列使用支持性ISA的偏好差异较大。尽管两国的综合模型有所不同，但在使用所有类型的ISA时，意向是偏好的最强预测因子。然而，随着对制度控制的增加，社会反应路径在以色列变得更加突出，而理性路径在以色列变得重要。最后，态度是以色列人偏好的另一个重要预测因素，而原型感知在以色列人中更为突出。根据文献讨论了结果和影响。

期刊介绍： Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour focuses on the behavioural and psychological aspects of traffic and transport. The aim of the journal is to enhance theory development, improve the quality of empirical studies and to stimulate the application of research findings in practice. TRF provides a focus and a means of communication for the considerable amount of research activities that are now being carried out in this field. The journal provides a forum for transportation researchers, psychologists, ergonomists, engineers and policy-makers with an interest in traffic and transport psychology.
