MULTIDISCIPLINARY ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION REPORT AUTOMATION. VOLUME 4: UNIVARIATE FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTIONS OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION DATA

The document is the fourth volume of a five volume final report describing the results of the Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation Report Automation contract. It contains code value definitions and univariate descriptive statistics for the entire Multidisciplinary Accident Investigation (MDAI) automated report file. Accident data recorded on the Collision Performance and Injury Report (CPIR), Revision 3 has been built into three files: vehicle, occupant and injury. The data contained in the CPIR form has been supplemented with additional coded and computed variables. For each of 1092 MDAI investigated case vehicles on file, 829 variables have been processed. Data on 1854 MDAI case vehicle occupants and 7710 occupant injuries are also in computer storage. Annotated accident report forms are used as a codebook to define the code values for each variable. One-way frequency distributions or univariates are used to statistically describe the file contents for each numeric variable.
