Abstract
Two studies of personality correlates of driver stress are reported. The first related the EPQ to measures of coping with stress: results suggested that neuroticism is associated with use of relatively ineffective coping strategies, whereas extraversion is associated with use of rational, planful problem-solving strategies. The second study related measures of the 'Big Five' derived from normative and semi-ipsative versions of an adjective checklist, and from the 16PF, to questionnaire driver stress scales. Driver stress was primarily associated with high neuroticism and low affection, though possibly for different reasons.
