TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - Study of pedestrian crossing behavior at signalized intersection based on structural equation model JO - Advances in transportation studies A1 - Mo, Z. G. A1 - Mo, L. G. SP - 45 EP - 54 VL - 42 IS - SI 2 N2 - In order to study the pedestrian crossing behavior, a practical survey was conducted at a signalized intersection, with data regarding individual factors and traffic factors collected. Based on the basic analyses of data, a structural equation model (SEM) was built to explore the interactive causal relationship between the various factors and pedestrians crossing behavior. The results show that 1) individual factors can lead to a greater effect (0.67) on conformity while the traffic factors can produce a greater response (0.78) on pedestrians' safety perception; 2) there was a synergistic effect of the conformity and safety perception on pedestrians' crossing timing and violation behavior; and 3) traffic conditions, related with pedestrians' perception of travel safety, dominated the pedestrians' consideration while crossing.
