The main aim of the present study is to investigate the
relationship between human's basic values and driving related vengeance
within the traffic setting. Based on the postulates of Refined Theory of
Basic Individual Values (Schwarts et al., 2012), this study expected
specific relationships among human's value orientations, value
prioritizations and driving vengeance. A total of 226 participants have
taken an online survey to measure self-reports of driving vengeance and
value importance and driver-relevant demographics. The results of the
regression analysis revealed that Self-Enhancement values of
Power-Dominance and Achievement were positively; Security value of
Conformity-Rules were negatively related to driving vengeance. Moreover,
contrast analysis has revealed how value orientations of males can play
a role in the manifestation of socially aberrant driving behaviors that
are based on taking retribution. The findings of the study have
provided an understanding with regards to the value dynamics that took
place within the traffic setting. Specifically, it has been indicated
that the value trade-off between Self-Enhancement values Security values
were prominent in determination of traffic related behaviors. Based on
this, value-based interventions that target early education of
individuals and future drivers may reduce the occurrence of driving
related aggression. Consequently, this might lead to improved road
safety and a healthier driving environment.
