In this thesis report we conducted research study on driver's behavior in T-Intersections using simulated environment. This report describes and discusses correlation analysis of driver's personality traits and style while driving at T-Intersections. The experiments were performed on multi user driving simulator under controlled settings, at Linköping University. A total of forty-eight people participated in the study and were divided into groups of four, all driving in the same simulated world. During the experiments participants were asked to fill a series of well-known self-report questionnaires. We evaluated questionnaires to get the insight in driver's personality traits and driving style. The self-report questionnaires consist of Schwartz's configural model of 10 values types and NEO-five factor inventory. Also driver's behavior was studied with the help of questionnaires based on driver's behavior, style, conflict avoidance, time horizon and tolerance of uncertainty. Then these 10 Schwartz's values are correlated with the other questionnaires to give the detail insight of the driving habits and personality traits of the drivers.

The Scale Values Schwartz (Schwartz Value Survey), in its PVQ - Portrait Value Questionnaire version, was used in collecting research data, aiming investigate most relevant motivational types for Y's and their cohorts, allowing so draw a motivational profile of each demographic group. Based on the collected sample, the study concludes there is no statistical evidence on the existence of differences in motivational profile between generations within the organization researched. / A presente dissertação investiga o perfil motivacional de empregados de uma grande instituição financeira brasileira, inseridos no corte demográfico designado de 'Geração Y' (Y’s).
