Gender as moderator of the relationship between impulsivity and driving after cannabis use

Wang, Yifan 05 1900 (has links)
Road traffic crashes are a serious public health problem worldwide, and human factors are the most prominent factor of accidents, affecting mostly the young adults. Past studies found that both gender and personality traits such as impulsivity are associated with risky driving, however, the interaction of these predictors is rarely addressed in the literature. To bridge the gap, the present study explores how a specific facet of impulsivity interacts with our hypothesized moderator, gender identification, leads to drug driving using a moderator analysis. We recruited participants from 17 to 35 years old possessing a valid drivers' licence via Facebook advertising. They were invited to complete a questionnaire on their socio-demographic characteristics, cannabis consumption habits and impulsivity scores. A moderator analysis is conducted to disentangle the relationship between sensation seeking, gender and driving after cannabis consumption using SPSS Process. The proposed model contains sensation seeking as an exogenous variable directly associated with driving after cannabis use, and this relationship is moderated by gender identification. The current study provides evidence that sensation seeking and gender identification are not only associated with DACU but also interact to affect driving behaviour. Implications of the study are discussed. / Les accidents routiers constituent de graves problèmes de santé publique dans le monde et les facteurs humains sont connus pour être le principal facteur d'accidents, impliquant principalement les jeunes adultes. Des études antérieures ont démontré que le genre ainsi que des facteurs liés à la personnalité tels que l'impulsivité sont associés à la conduite après consommation récente de cannabis, cependant, l'interaction de ces prédicteurs est rarement abordée dans la littérature. Pour cette raison, cette étude vise à explorer le processus par lequel une facette spécifique de l'impulsivité interagit avec le genre ou le sexe pour modérer la probabilité de prendre le volant après avoir consommé du cannabis. Des participants de 17 à 35 ans possédant un permis de conduire valide ont été recrutés à partir de Facebook par le biais d’annonces payantes. Ils étaient invités à remplir un questionnaire portant sur leur caractéristique socio-démographique, leur habitude de consommation de cannabis, ainsi que sur les composantes de l'impulsivité. Une analyse de modération a été effectuée pour clarifier la relation entre la recherche de sensations, le genre et la conduite d’automobile à l'aide du SPSS PROCESS. Le modèle proposé inclut la recherche de sensations comme variable exogène directement associée à la conduite après la consommation du cannabis, et cette relation est modérée par le genre ressenti. Effectivement, le genre ressenti des participants semble être une variable modératrice de l’association entre la recherche de sensation et la prise de volant après avoir consommé du cannabis. Les implications de ces résultats seront discutées.

National Inter-religious Councils and Electoral Violence Restraint in Africa

Nakabiito, Joanna January 2022 (has links)
A handful of studies have shown that National Inter-religious Councils (NIRCs) contribute to electoral violence prevention. However, no quantitative study has evaluated the impact of their interventions and the conditions under which they lower electoral violence. Using data on African national elections from 1992-2019, I examine whether NIRCs' electoral-related peacebuilding interventions lower the severity of electoral violence and if their ability to do so depends on NIRCs' social power. The results in this thesis indicate that the presence of NIRCs' interventions during electoral rounds lowers the likelihood of severe electoral violence. The findings also reveal a significant disordinal interaction between NIRCs' interventions and their power, where the predicted probability of severe electoral violence reduces by 42% when powerful NIRCs implement peacebuilding interventions and, on the other hand, increases by 20% when less powerful NIRCs intervene. While this thesis fails to explain the disordinal interaction effect, it details this study's methodological tools and limitations and contributes an original dataset of NIRCs' interventions and power for future research.
