Pedestrian behavior under the Theory of Planned Behavior: a scoping review

Pedestrian Behavior, Theory of Planned Behavior, Scoping ReviewAbstract
Understanding human behavior is essential to create safer environments for pedestrians, who stand out as one of the most vulnerable and complex elements of traffic. The Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) has been widely used to understand the predictors of pedestrian behavior for the past 20 years. This scoping review aims to mapping and synthesizing the available knowledge on pedestrian behavior based on TPB. The review identified the most prevalent behaviors under investigation (i.e., violation, error, lapse, and safe behavior), as well as the most significant constructs and variables explaining pedestrian behavior. Risk behaviors that stood out in the reviewed studies were a) crossing in unauthorized areas; b) using a mobile phone while crossing; and c) walking and/or crossing while alcohol impaired. We conclude that TPB constructs can support road safety actions and guide the development of future studies focused on pedestrians.
