So far, research on pedestrians’ gaze behavior while crossing roads has mainly focused on individual pedestrians rather than groups. However, pedestrians often travel in groups especially in downtown areas. This observational study investigated how group characteristics (group size and movement of the group), situational factors (presence of traffic), and demographic variables (age and gender) influence pedestrians’ gaze behavior towards traffic during road crossing. A total of N = 197 pedestrians were observed of whom n = 24 traveled alone, n = 128 traveled in groups of two or three, and n = 45 traveled in groups of four or more. Results indicated that with increasing group size, the odds to observe traffic decreased. Diffusion of responsibility among group members might explain this effect. Finally, pedestrians’ group characteristics should be considered when developing automated vehicles that interact with vulnerable road users.

This study aims to test the influence of pay scheme and gender on managers’ ethical judgements in regards to overinvestment in corporate social responsibility. Drawing from atribution theory, this study predicts that managers with different payscheme and different gender will accordingly make different ethical judgements on overinvestment in CSR. The data were collected by conducting a quasi-experimentation. The results of this study show evidence that managers with overinvestment hindering payscheme (a payscheme that gives managers no incentive to overinvestment in CSR) are more likely to consider overinvestment in CSR as more unethical than those with overinvestment inducing payscheme. The results also show that gender has no influence on manager’s ethical judgement on overinvestment in CSR. This study contributes to management accounting and accounting ethic literature by identifying how the role of payscheme and gender influence ethical judgement on overinvestment in CSR.
