Distracted driving remains a significant global challenge to road safety, contributing to the occurrence of motor-vehicle crashes with serious consequences on public and environmental health. Despite efforts to explore factors underlying distracted driving, less is known on the role of the driver’s personality in affecting the tendency to report distraction. Five hundred and fifty-one participants (55 % females; age range: 18–82 years; M ± sd: 40.4 ± 17.5) from Australia and Italy completed an online survey including questionnaires on personality and distracted driving. The invariance of the tested model was assessed through a multigroup path analysis considering personality traits as predictors and different facets of the susceptibility to distracted driving as outcomes, in a unique model. The effects of age, gender, and education were also controlled in the analyses. Results showed differences among nationality groups in personality traits as well as in susceptibility to distraction. The tested model showed invariance across nationality groups, suggesting positive effects of Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Agreeableness on all dimensions of susceptibility to distracted driving. Furthermore, Conscientiousness was found to affect attitudes toward distraction, perceived control, and perceived social norms. Finally, the tendency to report susceptibility to involuntary distraction was influenced by Openness. These results provide insights on the usefulness of assessing personality profiles to achieve road safety improvements and represent a valuable source of knowledge for the study of individual risk exposure.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"107 ","pages":"Pages 744-759"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142442838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition to assessing trust, the survey included questions to assess objective knowledge about ADAS limitations, self-reported understanding of ADAS (i.e., how correct and complete drivers thought their understanding of ADAS was), number of methods they had previously used to learn about ADAS, frequency of ADAS use, familiarity with technology, propensity to trust technology, and demographics. Regression results showed that self-reported understanding, but not objective knowledge, predicted trust in ADAS, with higher self-reported understanding being associated with higher trust. Self-reported understanding was not correlated with objective knowledge; participants rated their self-reported understanding highly, but only identified an average of 42% of the system limitations included in the survey. Propensity to trust technology was also a significant predictor of trust in ADAS, with higher propensity to trust technology in general associated with higher trust in ADAS.

Emotions, as critical psychological factors influencing safe driving, directly impact drivers’ perceptions and judgments of surrounding information. Simultaneously, potential risks during the driving process can affect drivers’ decisions and driving behavior. On the basis of the definition of dimensional emotions, this study analyzes the impact of different valence, arousal, and risk level scenarios on drivers’ collision avoidance behavior. A total of 21 drivers aged 18 to 50 years, with driving experience ranging from 1 to 10 years, participated in a simulated driving experiment. This study employs the decision tree (DT) algorithm to define the quantitative relationship between the occurrence of different driving behaviors and their influencing factors. It predicts vehicle avoidance behavior in two emergency conditions to determine whether collision avoidance can be achieved. The results indicate that the model’s prediction accuracy improves when emotion and risk level information are combined, reaching 88.89 %. This is a 5.56 % improvement over the model using only emotion information and a 2.53 % improvement over the model using only risk level information. Compared with the impact of subjective emotional factors on driving behavior, risk scenarios exhibit a more stable trend in influencing driving behavior. Under the interaction of emotions and risk factors, the accuracy and generalization ability of the driving behavior prediction model based on the Decision Tree (DT) algorithm have been greatly improved. This research provides a theoretical basis for addressing adverse driving behavior caused by driver emotions and analyzing the factors influencing collision avoidance processes.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48355,"journal":{"name":"Transportation Research Part F-Traffic Psychology and Behaviour","volume":"107 ","pages":"Pages 695-709"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142424173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We measured pedestrians’ behavior and perceived safety when faced with AVs equipped with this acceleration indicator eHMI in a virtual reality (VR) street scene, where pedestrians had road-crossing tasks and vehicles did not always yield. We found that pedestrians exhibited crossing behavior according to the motion state of the oncoming vehicle. They almost always crossed if the vehicle yielded but considered the gap size to cross when it did not. With the acceleration indicator eHMI, they crossed more frequently if the vehicle yielded, yet less frequently if it did not. Although risky crossings could not be fully prevented, pedestrians crossed faster and maintained larger safety margins when the non-yielding vehicle used this eHMI. Additionally, pedestrians started to cross earlier when the eHMI indicated the vehicle’s decelerating state. Regarding pedestrians’ perceived safety, the eHMI did not increase perceived safety for decelerating vehicles but effectively decreased the perceived safety for accelerating vehicles. These results demonstrate the potential of enhancing vehicles’ inherent motion cues with eHMIs, but also imply that making vehicles’ motion state more apparent might not simply increase pedestrians’ perceived safety. Overall, a trade-off seems to exist that it is pedestrians’ sense of unsafety that leads to their safe road-crossing behavior.
