Abstract

The purpose of this article is to consider the problems of driving behavior research in modern traffic psychology. The article describes an integrative pattern of behavior, the socio-cognitive theory and the theory of planning behavior. It shows that the concept of "driving behavior" can be interpreted differently in the works of different authors and also that it differs from the concepts, which are designated in national psychology as "driving activity" or "driving." The article also provides a brief description of the basic psychological methods of studying driving behavior, analyzes their potentials and limitations. The material can be used by psychologists working in the field of road safety, as well as lecturers presenting the course "Psychophysiological basics of the driver's activity" and who can plan psychological studies of driving and driving behavior of students in driving school.
