This study investigates the temporal stability of associations between crash characteristics at different temporal levels using multiple correspondence analysis (MCA). For each date in 2020, crash data from the previous week, month, season, half year, one year, two years, three years, and four years are collected respectively as eight temporal levels. MCA plots and chi-square distance analysis are used to assess the temporal stability of associations between crash characteristics across dates in 2020 with data from various temporal levels. The key findings of this study demonstrate that associations between crash characteristics at lower temporal levels show notable and potential cyclical variations across dates, while more stable and long-term trend of associations between crash characteristics may be identified as the temporal level increases, especially at the two-year level and higher temporal levels at which temporal stability may be expected. The study contributes to the literature by presenting a challenge for traffic analysts in that both temporally stable and unstable associations between crash characteristics may be observed at any point in time when different temporal levels are considered as study periods. Therefore, it may serve as a foundation for future research and practical works to identify traffic safety issues and optimal policies as well as facilitate the interpretation of statistical modeling in the presence of temporally unstable data. ? 2022 Elsevier Ltd |
