Dr Sherrie-Anne Kaye (BBehavSc(Hons), PhD) is a Senior Research Fellow at the MAIC-QUT Road Safety Research Collaboration. Sherrie has worked in road safety research since 2010 and is particularly interested in examining why road users engage in risky driving behaviours. She has extensive experience designing and undertaking both qualitative and quantitative research and has worked on various projects involving young drivers, road safety advertising, speeding behaviour, and cognitive functioning. Her PhD research applied neurological and cognitive measures to examine the extent to which individual differences in reward and punishment sensitivities influenced young drivers processing and acceptance of speeding-related road safety messages.

Research Interests:

  • Speeding behaviour
  • Driver distraction
  • Technology acceptance
  • Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS)
  • Young drivers
  • Road safety advertising
  • Individual differences (reward and punishment sensitivities, sensation seeking, and impulsivity)
