Abstract:

A nonparametric quasi-experimental time series analysis is presented as a method for circumventing many of the problems often encountered in applying statistical analysis to the evaluation of safety programs. It is shown how this method is applicable where classical experimental techniques are impossible to implement. A case study, which shows the application to an actual pedestrian program evaluation, is given to exemplify the technique.
