An application of the Prototype Willingness Model to mobile phone use while driving by young novice drivers
Driving while using a mobile phone has been recognised as a risky activity. The purpose of this research project is to understand why some young people may illegally use their mobile phone while they are driving a car, such as by sending text messages, making hand-held voice calls, receiving video calls or using social media. The study will examine how some different types of thoughts and beliefs might influence young peoples' intentions, expectations about, and willingness to drive while they are using a mobile phone. An optional second survey that participants can choose to complete in three weeks time will help understand if and how these intentions, expectations, and willingness relate to the young people’s engagement in driving while using a mobile phone.
