TLDR
Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the characteristics of drivers' scrambling behavior and its influencing factors based on the theory of planned behavior and found that positive attitudes towards scrambling behavior, subjective norms and perceived behavior control increased the intention of scrambling behavior.Abstract:
Scrambling behavior is one of the main causes of road traffic accidents in China. This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of drivers’ scrambling behavior and its influencing factors based on the theory of planned behavior. A total of 388 drivers answered the questionnaire and 359 provided valid data. The structure equation model of scrambling behavior showed that positive attitudes towards scrambling behavior, subjective norms and perceived behavior control increased the intention of scrambling behavior. Furthermore, the path coefficient of the structural equation model for the scrambling behavior revealed that attitude was the most important factor influencing scrambling behavior. Thus, to prevent drivers from scrambling, traffic regulators should focus on improving drivers’ attitude towards this behavior, while auxiliary measures should be enacted to regulate drivers' subjective norms and perceptual behavior control. Implications on intervention strategy and policy to reduce scrambling behavior are discussed.read more

Modeling farmers’ adoption of low-carbon agricultural technology in Jianghan Plain, China: An examination of the theory of planned behavior
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper constructed a theoretical framework based on the theory of planned behavior and structural equation model to elicit the determinants affecting farmers' adoption of low-carbon agricultural technology (LCAT).

Data-driven analysis of weather impacts on urban traffic conditions at the city level
Hui Bi,Zhirui Ye,He Zhu +2 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors conducted a contrastive analysis of travel time index (TTI) variations under weather conditions in four cities and found that the impact of meteorological variables on TTI on non-weekdays might result in significantly worse traffic conditions.

Underestimated Risk Perception Characteristics of Drivers Based on Extended Theory of Planned Behavior
TL;DR: In this article , a structural equation model was applied to investigate the effects of normlessness, behavioral attitudes, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control on the tendency to underestimate the risk.

Evaluation of Road Users’ Violations at Railroad Grade Crossings
TL;DR: In this paper , a comprehensive survey was conducted at 21 RRGCs throughout nine Indian states, yielding a total of 7,208 responses, and separate ordered probit models for individual and group violations were developed.

Investigating the Influence of ADAS on Drivers’ Evasive Behaviors During Car-Following on Highways
TL;DR: In this paper , an on-road experiment was conducted on public highways in real traffic and the dangerous driving data of NCEs in different working states of ADAS (i.e., activated or not) were collected and combined to classify NCE drivers' risk levels: lower, medium, and higher based on the K-means clustering results.

The theory of planned behavior
TL;DR: Ajzen, 1985, 1987, this article reviewed the theory of planned behavior and some unresolved issues and concluded that the theory is well supported by empirical evidence and that intention to perform behaviors of different kinds can be predicted with high accuracy from attitudes toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control; and these intentions, together with perceptions of behavioral control, account for considerable variance in actual behavior.

Structural equation modeling in practice: a review and recommended two-step approach
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide guidance for substantive researchers on the use of structural equation modeling in practice for theory testing and development, and present a comprehensive, two-step modeling approach that employs a series of nested models and sequential chi-square difference tests.

Culture and the self: Implications for cognition, emotion, and motivation.
TL;DR: Theories of the self from both psychology and anthropology are integrated to define in detail the difference between a construal of self as independent and a construpal of the Self as interdependent as discussed by the authors, and these divergent construals should have specific consequences for cognition, emotion, and motivation.

Culture and systems of thought: holistic versus analytic cognition.
TL;DR: The authors find East Asians to be holistic, attending to the entire field and assigning causality to it, making relatively little use of categories and formal logic, and relying on "dialectical" reasoning, whereas Westerners are more analytic.

TL;DR: Women were significantly more prone to harmless lapses than men, consistent with the view that errors and violations are indeed mediated by different psychological mechanisms.
