Who are Bicyclists? Why and How Much are they Bicycling?
(National Academy of Sciences, 2009)
The objective of this paper is to explore and unravel the factors influencing the decision to bicycle, with a view to inform the development of appropriate and effective strategies to increase bicycling use and promote the ...
An Analysis of Bicycle Route Choice Preferences in Texas, U.S
(Springer, 2009)
In the U.S., the rise in motorized vehicle travel has contributed to serious societal, environmental, economic, and public health problems. These problems have increased the interest in encouraging non-motorized modes of ...
When, Where, How Long, and With Whom are Individuals Participating in Physically Active Recreational Episodes?
(Maney Publishing, 2011)
This paper offers a comprehensive analysis of physical recreational activity engagement by simultaneously examining the location, time of day, day of week, and social context of these activities. Data from the 2007 American ...
Accommodating Spatial Correlation Across Choice Alternatives in Discrete Choice Models: An Application to Modeling Residential Location Choice Behavior
(Elsevier, 2011)
This paper presents a modeling methodology capable of accounting for spatial correlation across choice alternatives in discrete choice modeling applications. Many location choice (e.g., residential location, workplace ...
A Flexible Spatially Dependent Discrete Choice Model: Formulation and Application to Teenagers' Weekday Recreational Activity Participation
(Elsevier, 2010)
This study proposes a simple and practical Composite Marginal Likelihood (CML) inference approach to estimate ordered-response discrete choice models with flexible copula-based spatial dependence structures across observational ...
Flexible Spatial Dependence Structures for Unordered Multinomial Choice Models: Formulation and Application to Teenagers’ Activity Participation
(Springer, 2012)
The current paper proposes an approach to accommodate flexible spatial dependency structures in
discrete choice models in general, and in unordered multinomial choice models in particular. The
approach is applied to ...
An Analysis of the Social Context of Children's Weekend Discretionary Activity Participation
(Springer, 2007)
This paper examines the discretionary time-use of children, including the social context of children's participations. Specifically, the paper examines participation and time investment in in-home leisure as well as five ...
Modeling the Spatial and Temporal Dimensions of Recreational Activity Participation with a Focus on Physical Activities
(Springer, 2012)
This study presents a unified framework to understand the weekday recreational activity
participation time-use of adults, with an emphasis on the time expended in physically active
recreation pursuits by location and by ...
An Analysis of Children's Leisure Activity Engagement: Examining the Day of Week, Location, Physical Activity Level, and Fixity Dimensions
(Springer, 2008)
This paper presents a detailed analysis of discretionary leisure activity engagement by children. Children's leisure activity engagement is of much interest to transportation professionals from an activity-based travel ...
A Copula-Based Closed-Form Binary Logit Choice Model for Accommodating Spatial Correlation Across Observational Units
(Springer, 2009)
This study focuses on accommodating spatial dependency in data indexed by geographic location. In particular, the emphasis is on accommodating spatial error correlation across observational units in binary discrete choice ...
