Journal Title: Revista de Psicología y Ciencias del Comportamiento de la Unidad Académica de Ciencias Jurídicas y Sociales - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Psychological interventions have highly questionable results because they have weak bases and tend to be ephemeral and prioritize the actions on the individual aside from the work in the community and thus encompassing very limited populations. The traffic psychology is not a land free of these problems, on the contrary, within the same discipline is a little explored and in the specific case of Mexico is a completely forgotten psychology. Accidents in the country roads continue to be a major problem of public health and safety to be the leading cause of death in children between 5 and 14 years old and the second leading cause among young people 15 to 29 years of age. This work aims to generate empirical evidence that shows little or no participation of Mexican psychologists on the issue of the traffic psychology through production and dissemination of research articles. As well as focusing attention on the subject for future research. This 1959 articles in 239 available numbers of Mexican journals in psychology were reviewed in a period of time spanning from the year 1975 until the year 2013. The results of the review are a clear signal of alarm and a serious wake-up call to psychologists Mexican since 1959 articles reviewed in 239 numbers of 8 scientific journals taken for the study, only found 2 articles that met the selection criteria and are therefore related to the traffic psychology. Road accidents are a problem whose solutions involve psychologists and the same commitment is the key that will open the doors to a Mexico more secure in terms of roads.
