Driver aging and its effect on male and female single-vehicle accident injuries: Some additional evidence

Examining the influence of aggressive driving behavior on driver injury severity in traffic crashes

“…In this chapter, we limit our review of injury severity studies to those very recent discrete choice studies that have not been listed in Eluru and Bhat, or are directly relevant to the aggressiveness-injury severity context of the current research effort. Islam and Mannering (2006) analyzed the moderating effect of driver gender and age on the influence of other injury severity determinants using segmented multinomial logit models for male and female drivers for three age groups (16 to 24 years, 25 to 64 years, 65 and above). They found that there are significant differences in the factors, and the magnitudes of the influence of factors, affecting injury severity levels based on gender and age.…”

Traffic accident segmentation by means of latent class clustering

“…To test this, we will perform traffic injury analysis for each traffic accident. We will apply the multinomial logit model, which is the most widely applied discrete-outcome modeling approach for accident-severity analysis (Zhang et al, 2000;Bédard et al, 2002;Al-Ghamdi, 2002;Islam and Mannering, 2006;Ulfarsson and Mannering, 2004;Kim et al, 2007, Carson andMannering, 2001;Shankhar and Mannering, 1996;Valent et al, 2002;Yau, 2004). Our injury risk analysis mainly follows the work of Ulfarsson and Mannering (2004), Islam and Mannering (2001) and Kim et al (2007).…”

“…Many researchers apply a multinomial logit model for this type of research because MNL models allow a variable to have a convex (or concave) effect which pushes away from (towards) the middle injury severity levels and towards (away from) the high and low injury severity levels (Kim et al, 2007;Ulfarsson and Mannering, 2004;Islam and Mannering, 2006;Savolainen and Mannering, 2007).…”
