Abstract:The Task II final report for 1974 of the Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation Team of the Maryland Medical-Legal Foundation, Inc. is presented. This report describes some preliminary findings emanating from a series of comprehensive, multivariate, statistical analyses of psycho-social data on fatally injured (N=74) and non-fatally injured (N=33) responsible (culpable) male drivers' collected throughout the greater Baltimore metropolitan area over the seven-year period extending from 1968-74. The primary data-collection instruments employed were the Katz Adjustment Scales - R Forms (KAS) and the Maryland Medical-Legal Psychosocial Questionnaire (MMLQ). The complex interrelationships among psycho-social factors and demographic and situational variables such as age, alcohol involvement, and fatality status are explored and discussed, and tentative conclusions and recommendations are formulated. Further confirmation of the findings presented herein must await the accumulation of additional data to be collected and analyzed during the 1975 contract year. /Abstract from report summary page/
