Evacuation models used in fire safety technology have significantly expanded their capabilities over the past decades. They have become simple computational tools in which we deal with methods such as overcoming conflicts, while using modern modeling techniques it is possible to model complex behavior and decision making of people. Despite the progress, the methods of evacuation modeling seem obvious, their comparative capabilities for all years, everything that exists, in which there is room for improvement. Evacuation models used in fire safety techniques have greatly expanded their capabilities over the past decades. They have become simple computational tools in which the equations of motion of people are implemented in discrete spaces, while using modern modeling methods it is possible to simulate complex behavior and decision making by people. Despite the progress of evacuation modeling methods when comparing their capabilities, it seems obvious that there are still many areas in which there is room for improvement. In evacuation models, the movement of people is usually based on modeling the speed of unhindered walking, with which evacuees move, and the influences on it. This is one of the key factors influencing the results obtained using evacuation models. Currently, various methods of modeling the movement of people are used: steering behavior, models based on social forces, cellular automaton model, etc. Usually, as an input to evacuation models, the distribution of unimpeded travel speed is required, and then they use various methods, sub-models, algorithms for calculating speed with obstacles. When calculating the obstructive speed, two factors are mainly taken into account: 1) the interaction of the simulated evacuees with other evacuated people and 2) the interactions of those evacuated with the environment. Despite the fact that their use allows you to fix the relationship between the speed of movement, the density of people and the flow, there are additional factors that can affect the speed of movement with obstacles. The article proposes a psychological model of the agent's behavior for the improvement of the multi-agent modeling method, which takes into account the individual characteristics of a person’s personality, which is one of the factors affecting the speed of movement.
