The aim of this investigation is to show the relationships between the use of Mobile Driving Applications and Devices (mdad) with self-reported road accidents, anger, physical health, and subjective wellbeing, in three types of Colombian drivers. The sample is non-randomized (n = 1149) and 93.2% are male drivers. Results showed that (a) for professional drivers, there is an inverse correlation between the use of mdad with lower driving frequency during weekdays and a higher educational level, (b) for occasional drivers, gps use was directly associated with fatal road accidents and low driving frequency during weekdays, (c) for private drivers, correlations were found between mdad broader usage, higher levels of both aggression and perceived driving difficulty as well as physical health problems mainly hypertension and diabetes. It is necessary to conduct in-depth research on mdad uses, health, and driving styles, by controlling social desirability.
El objetivo de esta investigación es mostrar las relaciones entre el uso de Dispositivos y Aplicaciones Móviles para la Conducción (damc) con la accidentalidad vial auto reportada, la ira, la salud física y el bienestar subjetivo, en tres tipos de conductores colombianos. La muestra es no aleatoria (n = 1149) y el 93.2% son conductores varones. Los resultados muestran que (a) en conductores profesionales, hay una correlación inversa entre el uso de damc con una menor fre- cuencia de conducción entre semana y con un mayor nivel educativo, (b) en conductores ocasionales, mayor uso de gps asociado con accidentes fatales y con menor frecuencia de conducción entre semana, (c) en conductores particulares, mayor uso de damc relacionado con niveles más altos de agresividad y de dificultad percibida para conducir, y con más problemas de salud —principalmente hipertensión y diabetes. Es necesario realizar investigaciones en profundidad acerca de los usos de damc, salud y estilos de conducción, mediante el control de la deseabilidad social.
