risky driving behaviors are the most effective factors in traffic accidents and have even been reported as the most common cause in many cases of traffic accidents. Therefore, the aim of this study was to predict risky driving behavior through cognitive flexibility and personality traits.
The research method was correlational. The research population consists of all male bus drivers of intercity terminals of Tehran. From this population, 210 subjects were selected by multistage random cluster sampling and answered to driving behavior Manchester questionnaire (MDBQ), NEO personality inventory (NEO-FFI) cognitive flexibility Inventory (CFI). Data were analyzed through the Pearson correlation and multivariate regression analysis.
The result showed that there was a positive correlation between neuroticism personality trait and risky driving behavior (P< 0.05). There was a negative correlation between extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness personality traits, cognitive flexibility, and risky driving behavior (P<0.05). Personality traits and cognitive flexibility could predict cognitive flexibility (P< 0/05).
There is a relationship between personality traits, cognitive flexibility, and high-risk driving behavior. Therefore, measuring the cognitive flexibility and personality traits of drivers is important to prevent their high-risk driving behavior.
