Bivariate Correlations and Mediation Analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between study variables. Individual values mediated the relationship between personality traits and pedestrian behaviors. The findings were provided in detail. Discussion of findings, limitations, and contributions of the current study were presented in light of the relevant literature.
