Professional drivers (n = 30) were compared with a group of workers from di…

The Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (Maas) in an Argentine Population
The purpose of this study was to provide evidence of validity for the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale scores in an Argentine sample (Spanish-language version). Results indicated satisfactory psychometric properties (a one-factor structure, good item discrimination, high reliability, and significant correlations with additional measures). This version could be useful for research and assessment ends
Helmet use among motorcyclists

The following variables were studied: gender, type of motorcycle, weather conditions, time of the day, city area and type of road where motorcyclists traveled. Data were analyzed through a multiple logi…
