Debrief Sheet

Thank you for participating in this research. The aim of this study is to assess the relationship between certain personality traits and driving behaviour. Previous research has highlighted the personality trait narcissism as having a strong relationship with driving aggression. I aim to further develop this area of research by identifying if impulsivity mediates this link that has been found with the data that you have provided on the personality scales and driving behaviour questionnaire.

After submitting your questionnaire, it is no longer possible to withdraw your data as no identifying information was collected. Your data is anonymous and will be stored on a secure computer until after the report is concluded when it will be destroyed. Only myself, the research supervisor, second markers and external markers will have access to your data.

If any part of the questionnaire has caused you any distress, the details of an organisation that can help are listed below.

If you have any concerns about the research that you wish to raise with somebody who is independent of the research team, you should raise this with the University Officer for Ethics (OfficerForEthics@uclan.ac.uk).

If you require any further information, please feel free to contact myself or the research supervisor with the details given below.

Thank you again for your participation, it is very much appreciated.
