Resumo: The objective of this study was to carry out an adaptation of the Positive Driver Behaviours Scale (PDBS) for Brazil and verify if it would be possible to propose a brief version of the scale. The instrument, originally composed of 38 items, was applied to 204 drivers in Brazil, the majority of whom were men (65.7%), with a mean age of 35.6 years. The result showed the possibility of a one-factor structure, consisting of a total of 19 items and Cronbach’s alpha = .90, explaining 37.9% of the total variance. The relevance of this measure is highlighted because it is a tool capable of evaluating non-traffic behavior. Besides, it provides support to traffic professionals and psychologists, in order to instrumentalize their practices. It also allows further understanding of the phenomenon of transport, which can facilitate the development of effective measures to combat accidents.

El instrumento originalmente compuesto por 38 ítems fue aplicado a 204 conductores del Brasil, la mayoría siendo hombres (65,7%), con un promedio de edad de 35,6 años. El resultado mostró la posibilidad de una estructura unifactorial, compuesta por un total de 19 ítems y alfa de Cronbach = 0,90, explicando los 37,9% de la variancia total. Se destaca la relevancia de esta medida, porque ofrece un subsidio capaz de medir comportamiento en el tránsito. Además, ofrece soporte para los profesionales y psicólogos del tránsito, instrumentalizando prácticas. También permite una comprensión del fenómeno de los transportes, lo que puede facilitar el desarrollo de medidas eficaces para combatir los accidentes.Objetivou-se realizar uma adaptação da Positive Driver Behaviours Scale (PDBS) para o Brasil e verificar se seria possível propor uma medida reduzida. O instrumento originalmente composto por 38 itens foi aplicado a 204 motoristas do Brasil, sendo a maioria homens (65,7%), com média de 35,6 anos. O resultado mostrou a possibilidade de uma estrutura unifatorial, composta por um total de 19 itens e alfa de Cronbach = 0,90, explicando 37,9% da variância total. Destaca-se a relevância dessa medida, pois ela fornece um subsídio capaz de medir comportamento no trânsito. Além disso, oferece suporte para os profissionais e psicólogos do trânsito, de modo a instrumentalizar as práticas. Permite ainda uma compreensão do fenômeno dos transportes, o que pode facilitar o desenvolvimento de medidas eficazes no combate aos acidentes.Editora Mackenzie2023-01-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/1362310.5935/1980-6906/ePTPPA13623.enThe Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 25 No. 1 (2023); ePTPPA13623Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 25 Núm. 1 (2023); ePTPPA13623Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 25 n. 1 (2023); ePTPPA136231980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
