The role of personal norms in the choice of mode for commuting (2020)
Journal Article
Ababio-Donkor, A., Saleh, W., & Fonzone, A. (2020). The role of personal norms in the choice of mode for commuting. Research in Transportation Economics, 83, Article 100966. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.retrec.2020.100966

Research in travel behavioural studies have shown that social forces play a significant role in travel decision making like socioeconomic factors. Several studies have tested models with different subjective variables to investigate their effects on... Read More about The role of personal norms in the choice of mode for commuting.

Pedestrian Road Crossing at Uncontrolled Mid-Block Locations: Does the Refuge Island Increase Risk? (2020)
Journal Article
Saleh, W., Grigorova, M., & Elattar, S. (2020). Pedestrian Road Crossing at Uncontrolled Mid-Block Locations: Does the Refuge Island Increase Risk?. Sustainability, 12(12), Article 4891. https://doi.org/10.3390/su12124891

The study investigates the behaviour of pedestrians crossing a road with a refuge island in an urban area to assess whether refuge islands deliver their expected benefit. This type of pedestrian crossings aims at providing a half-way shelter and prot...

Investigation of Critical Gap for Pedestrian Crossing Using Fuzzy Logic System (2020)
Journal Article
Saleh, W. S., & Lashin, M. M. A. (2020). Investigation of Critical Gap for Pedestrian Crossing Using Fuzzy Logic System. Applied Sciences, 10(10), Article 3653. https://doi.org/10.3390/app10103653

This paper assesses pedestrian crossing behavior and critical gaps at a two-way midblock crossing location. A critical gap is the shortest gap that a pedestrian accepts when crossing a road. A dataset was collected in 2017 in Edinburgh (UK). The anal... Read More about Investigation of Critical Gap for Pedestrian Crossing Using Fuzzy Logic System.

Understanding transport mode choice for commuting: the role of affect (2020)
Journal Article
Ababio-Donkor, A., Saleh, W., & Fonzone, A. (2020). Understanding transport mode choice for commuting: the role of affect. Transportation Planning and Technology, 43(4), 385-403. https://doi.org/10.1080/03081060.2020.1747203

This study examines the relationship between positive and negative user valence and transport mode choice behaviour. We integrate latent attitudes ‘affect’ and ‘salience’ into transport mode choice models using the framework of integrated choice and...

Effect of motorcycle helmet types on head injuries: evidence from eight level-I trauma centres in Taiwan (2020)
Journal Article
Lam, C., Wiratama, B. S., Chang, W., Chen, P., Chiu, W., Saleh, W., & Pai, C. (2020). Effect of motorcycle helmet types on head injuries: evidence from eight level-I trauma centres in Taiwan. BMC Public Health, 20(1), Article 78 (2020). https://doi.org/10.1186/s12889-020-8191-1

Background
Motorcycle full-coverage helmet use may reduce fatalities and head injuries.

Methods
This retrospective cohort study extracted injury data from eight level-I trauma centres in Taiwan and performed a questionnaire survey to investigate... Read More about Effect of motorcycle helmet types on head injuries: evidence from eight level-I trauma centres in Taiwan.
