Medientyp: E-Artikel Titel: Predictors of women's aggressive driving behavior Beteiligte: Krahé, Barbara Erschienen: Wiley, 2005 Erschienen in: Aggressive Behavior Sprache: Englisch DOI: 10.1002/ab.20070 ISSN: 1098-2337; 0096-140X Schlagwörter: General Psychology ; Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous) ; Developmental and Educational Psychology Entstehung: Anmerkungen: Beschreibung: <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Predictors of women's aggressive driving behavior were explored in a study involving 256 female motorists. Sex role orientation, dispositional aggressiveness, age, and annual mileage were measured as independent variables, and aggressive driving behavior was included as the dependent variable. Stepwise hierarchical regression analysis showed that age was negatively related to driving aggression, whereas annual mileage had a positive relationship with driving aggression. Dispositional aggressiveness was a significant predictor of driving aggression. Of the two components of sex role orientation, only femininity was associated with driving aggression, with higher femininity scores predicting lower aggressive driving scores. Masculinity failed to predict aggressive driving, as did the interaction of masculinity and femininity. In combination, the predictors explained 29% of the variance in women's aggressive driving. The results are discussed with respect to the role of dispositional variables as predictors of driving aggression in women. Aggress. Behav. 00:1–10, 2005. © 2005 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.</jats:p>
