Hard Braking Events Among Novice Teenage Drivers By Passenger Characteristics.

Proceedings of the ... International Driving Symposium on Human Factors in Driver Assessment, Training, and Vehicle Design

Simons-Morton BG, Ouimet MC, Wang J, Klauer SG, Lee SE, Dingus TA.
PMID: 21243109
Proc Int Driv Symp Hum Factors Driv Assess Train Veh Des. 2009 Jun 22;2009:236-242. doi: 10.17077/drivingassessment.1327.

In a naturalistic study of teenage drivers (N = 42) hard braking events of ≤-0.45 g were assessed over the first 6 months of licensure. A total of 1,721 hard braking events were recorded. The video footage of a...

Bayesian Hierarchical Poisson Regression Models: An Application to a Driving Study with Kinematic Events.

Journal of the American Statistical Association

Kim S, Chen Z, Zhang Z, Simons-Morton BG, Albert PS.
PMID: 24076760
J Am Stat Assoc. 2013;108(502):494-503. doi: 10.1080/01621459.2013.770702.

Although there is evidence that teenagers are at a high risk of crashes in the early months after licensure, the driving behavior of these teenagers is not well understood. The Naturalistic Teenage Driving Study (NTDS) is the first U.S....

A Bayesian finite mixture change-point model for assessing the risk of novice teenage drivers.

Journal of applied statistics

Li Q, Guo F, Kim I, Klauer SG, Simons-Morton BG.
PMID: 29375174
J Appl Stat. 2018;45(4):604-625. doi: 10.1080/02664763.2017.1288202. Epub 2017 Feb 10.

The driving risk during the initial period after licensure for novice teenage drivers is typically the highest but decreases rapidly right after. The change-point of driving risk is a critical parameter for evaluating teenage driving risk, which also varies...

Adoption of Tobacco- and Smoke-Free Policies in a US National Sample of Postsecondary Educational Institutions.

American journal of public health

Trad C, Bayly J, Saint-Fort L, Andrews M, Patel M, Sabado-Liwag M, Haynie D, Simons-Morton B, Choi K.
PMID: 30138061

OBJECTIVES: To examine the institutional characteristics associated with the adoption of tobacco- and smoke-free policies among US postsecondary educational institutions.METHODS: In 2017, we collected information on tobacco policy types and institutional characteristics of a national sample of US postsecondary...

Alcohol-related deaths among young passengers: An analysis of national alcohol-related fatal crashes.

Journal of safety research

Romano E, Fell J, Li K, Simons-Morton BG, Vaca FE.
PMID: 34848017
J Safety Res. 2021 Dec;79:376-382. doi: 10.1016/j.jsr.2021.10.004. Epub 2021 Oct 27.

INTRODUCTION: There is consensus that riding with an impaired driver (RWI) constitutes a major threat to public health. The aim of this study was to characterize the factors contributing to the motor-vehicle deaths of 15-20 year-old (y/o) passengers that...

Peer Passenger Norms and Pressure: Experimental Effects on Simulated Driving Among Teenage Males.

Transportation research. Part F, Traffic psychology and behaviour

Bingham CR, Simons-Morton BG, Pradhan AK, Li K, Almani F, Falk EB, Shope JT, Buckley L, Ouimet MC, Albert PS.
PMID: 27818610
Transp Res Part F Traffic Psychol Behav. 2016 Aug;41:124-137. doi: 10.1016/j.trf.2016.06.007. Epub 2016 Jul 05.

OBJECTIVE: Serious crashes are more likely when teenage drivers have teenage passengers. One likely source of this increased risk is social influences on driving performance. This driving simulator study experimentally tested the effects of peer influence (i.e., risk-accepting compared...

A Functional Data Analysis Approach for Circadian Patterns of Activity of Teenage Girls.

Journal of circadian rhythms

Fan R, Chen V, Xie Y, Yin L, Kim S, Albert PS, Simons-Morton B.
PMID: 27103929
J Circadian Rhythms. 2015 Apr 08;13:3. doi: 10.5334/jcr.ac.

BACKGROUND: Longitudinal or time-dependent activity data are useful to characterize the circadian activity patterns and to identify physical activity differences among multiple samples. Statistical methods designed to analyze multiple activity sample data are desired, and related software is needed...

Enhancing the Quality of Prevention Research Supported by the National Institutes of Health.

American journal of public health

Murray DM, Cross WP, Simons-Morton D, Engel J, Portnoy B, Wu J, Watson PA, Olkkola S.

As the nation's premier biomedical research agency, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has supported most of the research that underlies the prevention services that are provided to citizens in the United States and around the world. Within the...

Association between the Built Environment and Active Transportation among U.S. Adolescents.

Journal of transport & health

Tewahade S, Li K, Goldstein RB, Haynie D, Iannotti RJ, Simons-Morton B.
PMID: 32864336
