Commute Travel Mode Choice Logit Model with Imprecision Explanatory Variable

The influence of travel attitudes, commute mode choice, and perceived neighborhood characteristics on physical activity.

BACKGROUND This study examines the relationships between physical activity, travel attitudes, commute mode choice, and perceived neighborhood characteristics. A recent study found that people who walk or bike during their commute exercise more outside of the commute than do people who commute by mass transit or car. The current study seeks to explain what might account for this relationship, us...

Travel mode choice and transit route choice behavior in Montreal: insights from McGill University members commute patterns

Modelling Departure Time, Destination and Travel Mode Choices by Using Generalized Nested Logit Model: Discretionary Trips (Research Note)

Despite traditional four-step model is the most prominent model in majority of travel demand analysis, it does not represent the potential correlations within different travel dimensions. As a result, some researches have suggested the use of choice modelling instead. However, most of them have represented travel dimensions individually rather than jointly. This research aims to fill this gap t...

Pricing and mode choice based on nested logit model with trip-chain costs

Commuters can complete their “home-work-home” trips by three options: subway-only mode, auto-only mode, and park-and-ride mode on a bottleneck-constrained corridor. The purpose of this paper is to enhance the insights into pricing mechanism for subway and parking and corresponding mode choice behavior on the corridor with elastic demand. A nested logit-based stochastic user equilibrium model is...

Beyond distance: children's school travel mode choice.

BACKGROUND Long distance is a leading environmental barrier to walking to school and requires long-term, multilevel interventions. Meanwhile, childhood obesity remains highly prevalent, calling for more immediate solutions. PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine attitudinal and environmental correlates of walking to the elementary school, controlling for distance. METHODS Using pa...
