Predictors of PTG Subscales

In order to examine predictors of PTG subscales and to test the Hypothesis 5 (Different factors will predict each of the five domains of PTG) of the present, hierarchical regression analyses were conducted separately for each subscale of PTG. These subscales are new...

Predictors of PTG

A series of hierarchical multiple regression analyses was conducted to examine the predictor variables of posttraumatic growth and to test the Hypothesis 4 (After controlling for the effect of gender, income, being driver or passenger during the accident, and...

Predictors of PTS Subscales

In order to examine significant predictors of PTS subscales and to test the Hypothesis 2 (Different factors will predict each of the three domains of PTS) of the present study, hierarchical regression analyses were conducted separately for each subscale of PTS. These...

Bivariate Correlations among the Variables of the Study

Bivariate correlations between all the variables of the study are presented in Table 7. PTG, the first dependent variable of the study, was positively correlated with income level (r = .15, p < .05), timing of the event (r = .20, p < .01), perceived severity of...

Positive Driver Behaviors Scale

Positive Driver Behaviors Scale

The Positive Driver Behavior Scale was developed by Özkan and Lajunen (2005) in order to provide a positive driver behavior dimension to Driver Behavior Questionnaire (Reason, Manstead, Stradling, Baxter, & Campbell, 1990). The aim of the Positive Driver Behavior...
Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS)

Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS)

Multidimensional Scale of Social Support (MSPSS) was developed by Zimet, Dahlem, Zimet, and Farley (1988). The scale was composed of 12 items designed to measure perceived social support acquired from three sources, namely family, friends, and significant others....
