Aspects of Brazilian Pedestrian Behavior: A Questionnaire Study

This paper presents a study that aimed to evaluate aspects of Brazilian pedestrian behavior. The considerable number of collisions with pedestrians in low and middle-income countries is a governmental concern considering its impact on the economic and health system. A survey was conducted based on a self-report questionnaire. Two rounds of pre-tests were necessary to adapt the English version of the questionnaire into Brazilian Portuguese. This effort was necessary to make respondents comfortable and understand clearly the 122 questions presented in the questionnaire. Data collection activities are still on-going at the time of writing.
