Samenvatting
Automobile accidents in the post high school year were studied for 377 social-psychological variables on a U.S. sample of 7,996. Forty of these variables for the males and 34 for the females were found to be predictors of accidents. These tended to be variables correlated with the socio-economic-education dimension, high access to cars, and poor acclimatization in school. Driver training courses do not reduce accidents.
