Choices of activity- and travel-change options

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- A conceptual framework based on self-regulation theory in social psychology is proposed with the purpose of analyzing adaptations of household car use. Changes in car-use options resulting from the implementation of policies designed to reduce car use are assumed to influence long-term, strategic choices of car-use reduction or change goals as well as the day-to-day, operational choices of activity/travel change options in order to attain these goals. Analyses are reported of retrospective survey data on activity/travel changes after the introduction of a toll ring in Trondheim, Norway.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- A conceptual framework based on self-regulation theory in social psychology is proposed with the purpose of analyzing changes in household car use affected by travel demand management (TDM) measures. TDM measures changing car use options are assumed to influence strategic choices of car-use reduction goals as well as operational choices of activity/travel change options in order to attain these goals. An ongoing internet survey will provide data on the activity/travel change options households choose depending on the size of the car use goal that they set

Understanding the process of adaptation to car-use reduction goals

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Two studies are reported examining the adaptations people make in order to achieve car-use reduction goals set in response to travel demand management (TDM) measures. Study 1 examined retrospective reports of actual behavioural adaptations made in response to the introduction of the Trondheim toll ring. Building upon the first study, Study 2 was an internet survey requiring respondents to state the frequency with which they would adopt various adaptation alternatives were they required to adapt to a small, medium, or large car-use reduction goal. The frequency with which a particular adaptation is implemented was found to vary with trip purpose and with size of reduction goal. The results were interpreted in the light of a modified cost-minimisation principle of adaptation.

Psychometric analysis of the satisfaction with travel scale
- 2013

Ingår i: Transportation Research Part a-Policy and Practice. - : Elsevier BV. - 0965-8564. ; 48:SI, s. 132-145

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Confirmatory factor analyses are used to examine the psychometric properties of the satisfaction with travel scale (STS), including tests of measurement invariance across urban areas and travel modes (car, public transport and slow modes). The data set consists of questionnaire responses from random samples of residents of Sweden's three largest urban areas. A theoretically supported, one-factor second-order measurement model with three separate constructs received empirical support in analyses of satisfaction with daily travel in general, satisfaction with the commute to work, and satisfaction with the commute from work in the different urban areas and with different travel modes. On the three first-order factors, high loadings were as expected obtained on scales involving cognitive evaluations (e.g. "low vs. high standard") and affective evaluations with respect to positive deactivation (e.g. "relaxed vs. stressed") and positive activation (e.g. "alert vs. tired"). Satisfaction with daily travel in general differed significantly in the largest urban area from the medium-large urban area and the smallest urban area. The results also revealed that commuters travelling by bicycle or on foot are more satisfied with their work commute than people using other travel modes.

A cross-country study of fairness and infringement on freedom as determinants of car owners´ acceptance of road pricing.
- 2004
-
Ingår i: Transportation. ; 31:3
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Jakobsson et al. (2000) found that in Sweden public acceptance of road pricing decreases if it is perceived to be unfair and to infringe on freedom. The present study reports a survey investigating whether the same effects are found in the Asian countries of Japan and Taiwan. The results indicate that fairness plays the same role. However, infringement of freedom may be more important in Japan than in Sweden or Taiwan. Income had a direct effect on acceptance in Taiwan but not in Japan or Sweden.

Role and acquisition of car-use habit
- 2007

Ingår i: Threats from car traffic to the quality of urban life: Problems, causes, and solutions. - Amsterdam : Amsterdam: Elsevier. ; , s. 235-250

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- It has been assumed that car-use habits make people automatically choose to use the car instead of alternative travel modes such as public transport, bicycle, or walking. Consistency between intention and behavior is thus reduced in travel mode choice. In this chapter we assume that car-use habits reflect script-based choice. Based on this assumption, we describe a method for measuring the strength of car-use habit. Further, we discuss how a car-use habit is acquired, its impact on travel mode choice, and how to break it.

Temporary structural change as a strategy to break car-use habit

Ingår i: Paper presented in L. Steg & B. Gatersleben (Conveners), Travel psychology. Symposium conducted at the 3rd international conference on traffic & transport psychology, University of Nottingham, UK..
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The results from three studies demonstrate that a temporary structural change breaks car-use habits and promotes public transport use. Studies 1 and 3 indicated that the temporary structural change induced a temporary behavioural change from car use to public transport use. As Studies 1 and 2 showed, the temporary behavioural change broke car-use habits. In addition, as found in Study 3, the temporary behavioural change corrected habitual drivers negative beliefs about the service level of public transport. The results of Study 2 showed that a temporary behavioural change had a positive effect on attitudes toward public transport. This attitude modification was perhaps caused by corrections of negative beliefs about public transport

Car user responses to travel demand management measures: Goal setting and choice of adaptation alternatives
- 2004
-
Ingår i: Transportation Research D. ; :9, s. 263-280
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Travel demand management measures can be used to encourage car users to set car-use reduction goals when experiencing impairments in travel options. In forming plans to reduce car-use contingent on such goals, car users consider a range of adaptation alternatives including more efficient car use, suppressing trips, and switching travel mode. These adaptation alternatives, it may be argued, are implemented sequentially over time according to a cost-minimisation principle. A focus group study was conducted gauging the creativity of car-using households when contemplating adaptation alternatives, followed by an Internet-based questionnaire study in an attempt to obtain quantitative estimates of the size of car-use reduction goals and frequency of implementation of adaptation alternatives. The data revealed that the effects of travel demand management measures and trip purpose on the setting of car-use reduction goals were small. While the cost-minimisation principle seemed to dictate stated choices of adaptation alternatives, further research needs to examine the ways in which the principle must be qualified.

- The chapter discusses different measures of public attitude to pricing of road transport with focus on private car use. Empirical data from the Stockholm road pricing field trial are used to estimate models of determinants of privat car users’ attitudes to the field trial.
