“…In particular, the positive The results of our personality profile analysis are consistent with previous findings relating risk-taking behavior to impulsivity and sensation-seeking traits (Zuckerman & Kuhlman, 2000). Previous studies have found these traits to be positively associated with risk-taking behavior such as drug use, sexual risk behavior (Donohew, Zimmerman, Cupp, & Novak, 2000), and financial risktaking (Wong & Carducci, 1991), as well as imprudent driving behavior (Beanland, Sellbom, & Johnson, 2014). In addition, lower sensitivity to punishment and greater sensitivity to reward were also associated with risktaking behavior, including behavior observed in driving environments (Scott-parker, Watson, King, & Hyde, 2012).…”

Impulsivity and sensation seeking are considered to be among the most important personality traits involved in risk-taking behavior. This study is focused on whether the association of these personality traits and brain functional connectivity depends on individuals' risk proneness. Risk proneness was assessed with the DOSPERT-30 scale and corroborated with performance in a motorcycle simulator. The associations of impulsivity-and sensation seeking-related traits with the between and within coupling of seven major brain functional networks, estimated from electroencefalograma (EEG) recordings, differ according to whether an individual is risk prone or not. In risk-prone individuals, (lack of) premeditation enhanced the coupling of the ventral attention and limbic networks. At the same time, emotion seeking increased the coupling of the frontoparietal network and the default mode networks (DMNs). Finally, (lack of) perseverance had a positive impact on the coupling of anterior temporal nodes of the limbic network whilst having a negative impact on some frontal nodes of the frontoparietal network and the DMNs. In general, the results suggest that the predisposition to behave riskily modulates the way in which impulsivity traits are linked to brain functionality, seemingly making the brain networks prepare for an immediate, automatic, and maladaptive response.K E Y W O R D S brain functional coupling, impulsivity, personality traits, risk taking, sensation seeking

“…Several studies have applied the 28- or 27-item version of the DBQ in recent years. The DBQ’s extended version has been mostly reported by a four-factor solution, including ordinary or rule violations, aggressive violations, errors, and lapses [23,24,25,26]. Violations refer to a driver’s intention to infringe on the regulations of safe driving (e.g., overtaking a slow driver on the inside).…”

“…The literature suggests that (1) most of the previous studies have been conducted on samples obtained from the general driving population, including car, bus, and truck drivers; (2) a large body of studies has examined the DBQ in Western and European countries and areas with good safety performances, such as Denmark [40], the United Kingdom [36], France [41], New Zealand [23], Australia [26,32], and North America [25]; and (3) most of the previous studies have limited themselves to an examination of the correlation between a few demographic variables (e.g., age and gender) and driving characteristics (e.g., annual mileage), and DBQ factors and accident risks. Despite extensive review, we did not find any study that focused on the DBQ factors of taxi drivers in a Middle Eastern context.…”

The current study aims to investigate the aberrant driving behaviour and risk involvement of Iranian taxi drivers. The sample comprised 405 Iranian taxi drivers, who were recruited with a cross-sectional design, using a self-completion questionnaire survey during October and November 2016. We contribute to the literature by understanding how and to what extent the socioeconomic, demographic, driving, and aberrant driving behaviours influence risk involvement (accident involvement and traffic tickets). The validated 27-item Driver Behaviour Questionnaire (DBQ) was applied to measure aberrant driving behaviour. The results from valid observations (n = 381) explored a four-factor solution (including errors, ordinary violations, lapses, and aggressive violations) of the DBQ. The results also showed that being a single driver, having a high annual driving mileage, and a high number of daily taxi trips were positively associated with accident involvement. Furthermore, there was a positive correlation between the more ordinary violations and aggressive violations and accident involvement. Establishing better training and qualification mechanisms for taxi drivers could be considered by traffic safety experts in order to reduce ordinary and aggressive violations.

“…Previous research has 216 typically found that in English-speaking populations this scale reveals four subtypes of aberrant 217 driving behaviour (Beanland et al, 2014): Ordinary Violations, or deliberately disregarding road 218 rules and norms; Aggressive Violations, involving hostility towards other road users; Errors, which 219 are dangerous non-deliberate acts, such as failing to detect oncoming traffic before turning; and 220…”
