The paper explored the use of subpopulation regression models to explain the injury incidence that occurred at 191 (N=192) signalized intersections in Montreal, Canada. Two negative binomial models were specified, one for younger and another for older pedestrians involved in crashes at the intersections.
One of the objectives of the study was to determine if subpopulation models could do a better job at teasing out the built environment characteristics associated with older adult injury involvement compared to the younger, and how these separate models could provide insights into an ideal built environment for an ageing population.
Results confirmed the hypothesis that older adult pedestrians were more sensitive to risk factors due to higher relative incidence factors compared to the younger. Results showed that the reverse is also true. For instance, in the older adult model, there was a statistically significant negative effect (p<0.05) on injury incidence when there was a center median present, whereas this was not the case in the younger model. These results provide insight into what can be considered more inclusive countermeasures for an ageing society — because what is good for the old is also good for the young, but the inverse is not necessarily true.
