Traffic Signs Comprehension among Motorcyclists: The Effect of Sign Type and Sign Familiarity

Abstract: The research aimed to examine the effect of sign types and sign familiarity on traffic sign comprehension. A mixed factorial design experiment involved manipulating two sign types (symbols vs symbols and text) and two sign familiarity (familiar vs unfamiliar) of a traffic sign, with sign familiarity as a within-subject factor. Previous studies had found a relationship between the lack of traffic sign comprehension and accident likelihood. However, there was still a lack of research examining the sign character… Show more

“…Fourth, previous studies measured sign comprehension in different ways. For example, few studies used sign comprehension time [18], level [11,[26][27][28][29]32], and both [16,17]. In the current study, sign comprehension would be measured by both sign comprehension time and level so that the speed and accuracy in comprehending the sign could be seen comprehensively.…”

“…There are a few modifications from the previous studies. First, previous studies used different road users as participants, for example, Koyuncu and Amado [18] used general road users, while Shinar and Vogelzang [16] and Wontorczyk and Gaca [31] used car or professional drivers, and Maulina et al [17,29,32] focused on motorcyclists. This current research would be focused on motorcyclists, as they have the highest accident rate in Indonesia.…”
