About the journal

Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour focuses on the behavioural and psychological aspects of traffic and transport, providing a long-needed single journal dedicated to this rapidly-expanding field.
The aim of the journal is to enhance theory development, improve the quality of empirical studies and to stimulate the application of research findings in practice. TRF will provide a focus and a means of communication for the considerable amount of research activities that are now being carried out in this field. The journal will provide a forum for transportation researchers, psychologists, ergonomists, engineers and policy-makers with an interest in traffic and transport psychology

Electronic Manuscripts
It is recommended that the final draft of the manuscript be submitted on diskette with two paper copies. Please observe the following criteria: (a) specify what software was used, including which release (e.g. WordPerfect 6.0); (b) specify what computer was used; ( c) include both text file and ASCII file on the disk; (d) the file should be single-spaced and should use wrap-around end-of-line-feature (i.e. no returns at the end of the line). All textual elements should begin flush left: no paragraph indents. Place two returns after every element such as title, heading, paragraphs, figure and table callouts, etc; (e) keep a backup disk for reference and safety.
Style of Manuscript
All sections of the manuscript (abstract, text, references) should be double-spaced, using a single typeface and style. Use underlining only for definitions and subsections; do not underline for emphasis. Footnotes should be limited in number and size, and should not contain mathematical expressions. Figures are photo-reproduced and authors will be required to furnish camera-ready artwork or glossy prints. Each figure should be placed on a separate sheet of paper, and should be of good quality. Lettering which appears on the figure should be of sufficient size to allow for considerable reduction. Write on the back, the figure number and something to identify the manuscript (its number or author(s) last names). The figure captions should be typed on a separate page at the end of the paper. Tables and their captions should be typed on separate sheets, numbered consecutively and indicated in the text at their approximate position. The journal uses two levels of headlinings: the first ("Sections") is centred, and is all capitals. The second ("Sub-sections") is flush left and is in italics. Normally these are not numbered, but if there are numerous cross-references, which might be needed for example in mathematical proofs, decimal numbering of sections and sub-sections is allowed. Do not under any circumstances use "bullets" (whether oversize dots, or dashes) to set out items in a list. Use (a), (b),... and if possible incorporate the list into ordinary paragraphing. Do not use ultra-short paragraphs of a single sentence frequently; each paragraph should contain a single idea, not a single remark. Equations should be clearly displayed, with any unusual symbols (including Greek letters) identified in the margin. Equation numbers should be placed in the right margin and numbered continuously, not by section. The abstract should describe in straightforward language the contents of the paper, but not its motivation. It should explain briefly the procedures and the results, and must not contain abbreviations and acronyms. After the abstract list up to six keywords. The American Psychological Association (APA) system of references is used. References should confirm to the following style References should be prepared carefully using the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association for style. They should be placed on a separate sheet at the end of the paper, double-spaced, and in alphabetical order. References should be quoted in the text by giving the author's name, followed by the year, e.g. (Hersen & Barlow, 1976) or Hersen and Barlow (1976). For more than two authors, all names are given when first cited, but when subsequently referred to, the name of the first author is given followed by the words "et al." as for example-First citation: Nau, Caputo and Borkovec (1974) but subsequently, Nau et al. (1974). References to journals should include the author's name followed by initials, year, paper title, journal title, volume number and page numbers, e.g. Singh N.N. (1980). The effects of facial screening on infant self-injury. Journal of Experimental Therapy and Experimental Psychiatry, 11, 131-134. or Beck, A.T., Ward, C.H., Mendelson, M., Mock, J. & Erbaugh, J. (1961). An inventory for measuring depression. Archives of General Psychiatry, 4, 561-565. References to books should include the author's name followed by initials, year, paper title, editors, book title, volume and page numbers, place of publication, publisher, e.g. Brownell, K.D. (1984). Behavioral medicine. In Franks, C.M., Wilson, G.T., Kendall, P.C. & Brownell, K.D. (Eds), Annual review of behaviour therapy (Vol. 10, pp. 11-20). New York: Guilford Press. Footnotes as distinct from literature references, should be indicated by the following symbols *,? ? [], ? commencing anew on each page. Illustrations and diagrams should be kept to a minimum: they should be numbered and marked on the back with the author's name. Captions accompanying illustrations should be typewritten on separate sheets. Diagrams and graphs must be drawn with Indian ink on stout paper or tracing linen. Photographs and photomicrographs should be submitted unmounted and on glossy paper. The following standard symbols should be used in line drawings since they are easily available to the printers: (open triangle) (downward open triangle) (closed triangle) (downward closed triangle) (open circle) (closed circle) (open box) (closed box) (open circle with a dot in the centre) (open circle with a + in the centre) (open circle with an x in the centre) (open circle with a - in the centre) Tables and figures should be constructed so as to be intelligible without reference to the next, each table and column being provided with a heading. Tables. Captions should be typewritten together on a separate sheet. The same information should not be reproduced in both tables and figures. Authors should consult a copy of Transportation Research for details, or write to the Editor-in-Chief for more complete instructions.
Proofs Before publication authors' proof will be sent to the corresponding author at the address shown on the Editor's covering letter. It is important that authors read the proof very carefully and answer all queries on the page proofs and return both proofs and original manuscript to the publisher within a short time (usually 48 hours). Except for typographical errors, changes should be kept to a minimum and rewriting the text is not permitted. Authors may be charged for changes other than the correction of typographical errors. Authors are urged to check their proof carefully, since late corrections cannot be accepted.
Reprints Along with page proofs, the corresponding author will receive a form for ordering reprints and full copies of the issue in which the paper appears. Twenty-five free reprints are provided; orders for additional reprints must be received before printing in order to qualify for lower prepublication rates. All co-author reprint requirements should be included on the reprint order form. Reprint forms, copyright forms, page proofs and the original manuscript should be returned to: Elsevier Ltd, Bampfylde Street, Exeter EX1 2AH, England.
Authors can also keep a track on the progress of their accepted article, and set up e-mail alerts informing them of changes to their manuscript's status, by using the "Track a Paper" feature of Elsevier's Author Gateway.
