“…In this regard, previous studies emphasized behavioral anomalies in the injured motorcyclists and reported different problems such as excitement seeking [22], drug abuse [23], impulsivity, decreased selfcontrol, sense of guilt [24], and depression among the injured riders. Other studies reported that aggression, traditionalism, alienation, violation-aggression, and impulsivity were related to risky behaviors of riding and traffi c accidents [25,26]. Moreover, one study in Iran showed that anxiety, anger, sensation and excitement, altruism, and anomaly were risky behavioral factors in riding motorcycles [8].…”

older age [3]. Moreover, other reports determined injuries to head and neck, body, spine, and eyes among the motor vehicle injuries [4-6]. These injuries, which result from ignoring safety rules while riding motorcycles, impose a large fi nancial burden on the society [1, 7]. Social, medical and economic problems caused by motorcycle injuries emphasize the importance of identifying the factors infl uencing such injuries. Behavioral factor is one of the signifi cant approaches to identify risk factors of motorcycle injuries. Previous studies have indicated that the majority of motorcycle accidents involve young men inclined to pick unsafe attitudes and perilous behaviors such as riding over the speed

“…The AFFM has been studied alongside risky and aggressive behaviors (Aluja, Blanch, & Balada, 2013;Kumar & Singh, 2015;Sârbescu, Costea, & Rusu, 2012) as well as personality pathology (Aluja, Blanch, & Balada, 2013;Aluja et al, 2015;Garcia et al, 2021). In the present study, we aim to connect contemporary conceptualizations of psychopathy (i.e., the TMP) with the AFFM to provide further insight on the personality structure and psychobiological basis of psychopathy.…”

The objective of this investigation was to develop a triarchic measure of psychopathy derived from item content in the Zuckerman-Kuhlman-Aluja Personality Questionnaire: an inventory designed to operationalize the biologically based Alternative Five Factor Model (AFFM). Traits within the AFFM have strong theoretical overlap with facets of psychopathy. Proponents of the triarchic model of psychopathy (TMP) suggest that three dimensions of psychopathy are ubiquitous and can be observed across diverse personality inventories; in study one we evaluate the relationship between the AFFM and the TMP and establish a measure of constructs within the TMP from the item content designed to measure the AFFM. Triarchic psychopathy is well covered by the factors of the AFFM, particularly sensation-seeking and aggressiveness. The newly developed triarchic constructs demonstrated strong internal consistency and predominantly correlated with their counterparts in the Triarchic Psychopathy Measure. In study two we evaluate the validity of the triarchic constructs in relation to personality and social variables. We found that the triarchic constructs are largely associated with personality variables in their expected direction. Furthermore, we established a relationship between the triarchic constructs and measures of trust in others, caution towards others, and altruistic vs. individualistic decisions in a monetary social task. We recommend future research further explore the interpersonal nature of psychopathy. We suggest that the new triarchic constructs developed in the present study require further validation but are ready for use.

“…However, our model yields an unexpected result by finding that the Act behaved as a direct, negative-signed predictor. However, this result is by no means inconsistent, as the Act personality trait has been positively related to non-problematic driving behaviours or adaptive/constructive forms of anger expression (Sârbescu, 2012;Sârbescu et al, 2012). Thus, it is recommended to pay more attention to the study of the relationship between the Act trait and the risky driving style, in future research.…”

The current study aims to examine the influence of personality traits (alternative Zuckerman model) and driving anger in the explanation of risky driving style in individuals convicted for road safety offences (N = 245), using as a basis an adaptation of the context-mediated model. This is a transversal, descriptive study designed to be implemented by means of surveys, in which took part 245 men convicted of road safety offences from five prisons in Galicia (a region in northwestern Spain) took part. The average age of the participants was 38.73 years (Sx-9.61), with a range between 18 and 64 years. All participants had three or more years of driving experience. Our data shows that the Impulsive-Sensation Seeking (Imp-SS) personality trait had a direct and positive effect on dangerous driving, while the Activity (Act) trait had a direct but negative effect. The Aggression-Hostility (Agg-Host) trait, in turn, influenced the risky driving style, but not directly, but by raising driving anger levels, so it acted as a powerful mediator between the Aggression-Hostility (Agg-Hos) trait and the risky driving style. In general, our research partially replicates and expands previous findings regarding the model used, the aggression-hostility personality trait (Agg-Host) was placed in the distal context, driving anger in the proximal context, while age and personality traits Activity (Act) and Impulsive-Sensation Seeking (Imp-SS) were direct predictors. The results of this study may have practical implications for the detection and rehabilitation of offenders and penalties for road safety offences.
