... NCHRP 3-78b: Final Project Report April 2016 117 8 APPENDIX B: YIELD MODEL DETAILS This appendix summarizes the yield modeling results for the combined data for TOPR-34 and NCHRP 3-78b. In order to create models to predict driver yielding rates for blind and sighted pedestrians, Stata was used to analyze data collected at two-lane roundabouts in Ohio, Maryland, Michigan, North Carolina, Washington, Oregon, Indiana, Wisconsin, and New York.

... NCHRP 3-78b: Final Project Report April 2016 119 • Full Model – uses all independent variables regardless of p-value. • Manual Selection – a custom model that is informed by the first modeling result and examination of correlation and collinearity, and considers practical significance and feasibility of implementing variables in simulation rather than focusing on statistical fit.
