By: Material type: TextTextPublication details: Ahmedabad Indian Institute of Management 1980 Description: 10 pSubject(s): DDC classification:
  • WP 1980 (309)
Summary: The present investigation attempts to find out whether Rosenzweig's PF Study can be used as a predictor of accident behaviour or not. The investigation was conducted at the passengers transport but depot of the U.P. State Road Transport Corporation Azamgarh. Hindi adaptation of the adult form of Rosenzweig's Picture Frustration Study was used to measure the types and directions of aggression. There are two main groups in this study. The first group includes 20 bus drivers with accident records (AG and the second group also has 20 bus drivers who are free from accidents (NAG). Results indicate that the drivers involved in accidents (AG) do not differ significantly from those drivers who are free from accidents (NAG) as to their reactions to frustrating situations. Rather it is conceivable that all the drivers whether accident prone or accident free, will exhibit similar patterns.
