Building Consensus on the Characteristics of Developmental Maturity: A Cross-Disciplinary Survey of Psychologists
TL;DR: In this article, the core characteristics of developmental maturity by examining the factor structure of this broad concept were evaluated and the results of an exploratory factor analysis supported a four-factor solution of development maturity: independent functioning, decision making, emotion regulation, and general cognitive processing.

Driver Pattern Identification in Road Crashes in Spain
TL;DR: Different multivariate driver behavior patterns are unveiled, providing information about their relative importance (proportion), which helps in road policy decision making in terms of development of prevention measures.

Driving exposure of Israeli young male drivers within a graduated driver licensing system
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use information gathered from an in-vehicle data recorder (IVDR), which was installed in the primary vehicles driven by 217 young male drivers, to study the amount of driving young drivers undertake and characteristics of the temporal and spatial distributions of these trips.

Cluster and factor analysis on data of fatal traffic crashes in China
TL;DR: The paper analyzed the importance of various factors based on the human-vehicle-road system, using two methods of multivariate statistical analysis (cluster analysis and factor analysis), and identified 23 main factors, involving human, vehicle, and road.

Patrones de cambio en la conducción de las mujeres
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze the driving behavior of men and women and attempt to establish whether women are better or worse drivers than men. And they compare the popular belief, which portrays women as bad drivers, with data compiled from the literature on evolutionary and constitutional differences and the differing vulnerability of the two genders, evaluating the characteristics, types of journey, accident data and styles of driving: caution vs. aggression at the wheel.

Changes in collision rates among novice drivers during the first months of driving.
TL;DR: It was found that crash rates drop most dramatically during the first 6 months of driving, and a graduated driver licensing system is identified as an effective method for ensuring that this development takes place in a more forgiving environment.

Carrying Passengers as a Risk Factor for Crashes Fatal to 16- and 17-Year-Old Drivers
TL;DR: The data indicate that the risk of fatal injury for a 16- or 17-year-old driver increases with the number of passengers, which supports inclusion of restrictions on carrying passengers in graduated licensing systems for young drivers.

Alcohol-related relative risk of driver fatalities and driver involvement in fatal crashes in relation to driver age and gender: an update using 1996 data.
TL;DR: This is the first study that systematically estimated relative risk for drink-drivers with BACs between 0.08% and 0.10% (these relative risk estimates apply to BAC range midpoints at 0.09%.) the results clearly show that drivers with a BAC under 0.
Journal ArticleDOI
Driving experience, crashes and traffic citations of teenage beginning drivers
TL;DR: Self-reported crash involvements and citations were examined for each teenager's first year of licensure and first 3500 miles driven to find male gender, a lower GPA and living in a rural area were associated with a higher citation rate.

The situational risks of young drivers: the influence of passengers, time of day and day of week on accident rates
TL;DR: The results indicate that the accident involvement rates of 16-19 year old drivers are higher than those of 20-24 and 25-59 year olds in all situations that were examined, but that they were disproportionately high on weekends, at nighttime and with passengers.
