Effects of personality traits and sociocognitive determinants on risky riding behaviors among Chinese e-bikers.

Conclusions: Personality traits of e-bikers impacted their riding behaviors both directly and indirectly, and sociocognitive variables played an intermediate role in the personality-behavior relationship. The results revealed the importance of personality traits in influencing e-bikers' risky riding and also verified the applicability of the personality-behavior model proposed by Ulleberg and Rundmo ( 2003 ) among e-bikers. The findings of this study may provide an empirical basis for evidence-based safety interventions for e-bikers in China. PMID: 31539283 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
