From extraversion to psychopathy: Personality predictors of drink-driving
This research replicates and extends previous studies by demonstrating both direct and indirect effects of various personality traits on problematic traffic behaviors (including drink-driving, traffic fines, and accident involvement). The findings underscore the importance of assessing personality traits in the context of driver licensing processes.
