Abstract:
Over the last several decades, positive public attitudes towards animal welfare have continued to develop. Consumers’ attitudes towards farm animal welfare indicate increasing concern about animal welfare in food production. Yet, this growing interest in the lives of farm animals does not correspond with a wholesale increase in demand for higher welfare products, providing evidence of the citizen-consumer attitude-behaviour gap (herein referred to as the attitude-behaviour gap). Minimising the attitude–behaviour gap and supporting consumers to make higher animal welfare choices may help producers to enhance the lives of farm animals. However, despite increasing awareness in this area, solutions to resolve this gap often focus on knowledge transfer and do not appear to have had a significant impact. The aim of this article is to review current knowledge around the attitude-behaviour gap, and situate it within the context of the behaviour change wheel; exploring the capabilities, opportunities, and motivations driving, as well as the barriers inhibiting consumers from making higher welfare food choices. Using this framework, the review aims to identify interventions that may boost consumer demand for higher welfare products sold at a premium price and provide suggestions for future research. Further work to increase understanding in this area is then also suggested.

Abstract:
The concept of pro-environmental behaviour in low carbon consumption has increasingly attracted academics’ attention in the last two decades. There has been a growing interest in exploring the association between people’s travel attitude and behaviour. This study has critically reviewed, compared, and discussed some of the key theories around these research topics. However, based on the findings of the literature review, there is a dearth of research examining the association between people’s travel attitude and their actual behaviour. Therefore, this study seeks to fill the gap by examining the causal linkage between people’s attitude towards a specific travel mode and their actual travel behaviour.

Abstract:
Green attitudes and consumer behaviour should correlate in order to achieve environmental objectives. Yet an attitude-behaviour gap exists, and there are many reasons why green attitudes are not proportionately translated into actual behaviour. This paper aims to describe the foundations of green attitudes of Czech consumers – their trust in solutions of companies, their belief in global warming and their willingness to join pro-environmental initiatives. Czech consumers were segmented by their gender, age and education. Based on a literature review and the results of this research, managerial implications were suggested in order to reduce this attitude-behaviour gap and help companies to communicate their green strategy more effectively. These fndings were framed by the previous research papers by the authors (Jaderná et al.) and should give an indication how to understand Czech consumers better.

Abstract:
Scholars have documented that many consumers have positive attitudes towards responsible products but do not consistently buy these alternatives. In this paper we present a new perspective, based on categorisation theory, to examine the attitude–behaviour gap. Through a qualitative study, we identify two dimensions that influence consumers’ categorisation of ethical products: (1) construing the decision as altruistic or self-interested and (2) perceiving the context of the behaviour as private or public. Using these dimensions to assess the consumption situation, consumers construe four types of responsible purchase that rest on different motivations. Analysing the categorisation process allows a more nuanced understanding of the potential reasons that underpin the attitude-behaviour gap. We show that the inconsistency between words and deeds has different explanations depending on the frame applied by consumers to the decision, and suggest that a deeper understanding of framing processes is necessary for the development of more effective marketing strategies.

Abstract:
Abstract The purchasing behaviour in the market of green products is at a low level. Consumers express their concern about the future of the planet and the cleanliness of the environment, but in their conduct they do not take into account ecological criteria. There is a discrepancy between what consumers say and what they really do. A favourable attitude to the idea of environmental protection does not translate into real action. The reasons for this gap have not been sufficiently researched yet. The aim of the research is to identify the causes of attitude-behaviour gap in the market of environmentally friendly products in Poland. To achieve the goal, the desk research and surveys were applied. The research shows that green products are well evaluated by consumers, although the knowledge about them is general and partial. Only 21% of respondents indicate knowledge of the production process, certification and control of environmentally friendly products. A large group of surveyed consumers (43%) shows willingness to pay higher prices for environmentally friendly products. But only one third of respondents (32%) declares trust in such products.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: I Sverige har intresset för att investera i hållbara fonder ökat rejält de senaste åren och med detta följer också en stor ökning i utbudet av hållbara fonder. Känt sedan tidigare är också att det råder en definitionsproblematik på ämnet som adderar komplexitet till marknaden, detta då hållbarhet i sig är svårdefinierat. Indikationer visar att det kan råda en skillnad mellan andelen människor som är intresserade av att investera hållbart och de som faktiskt gör det. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att slå fast huruvida det råder ett attitude-behaviour gap på marknaden för hållbara fonder. Vidare ämnar uppsatsen att uppskatta storleken på fondförmögenheten som finns i svenska hållbara fonder, detta för att få en bättre bild av marknaden och dess omfång. Till sist vill uppsatsförfattarna på villkoret att det råder ett attitude-behaviour gap undersöka de faktorer som kan tänkas föranleda det. Genomförande: För att kunna genomföra studien och besvara dess frågeställningar har två kvantitativa samt en kvalitativ metod använts. De kvantitativa delarna har genomförts med dels en enkät för att slå fast huruvida det finns ett attitude-behaviour gap samt databaser med fonddata där syftet har varit att slå fast mängden kapital som finns allokerat till svenska hållbara fonder. Den kvalitativa delen har genomförts med hjälp av semistrukturerade-intervjuer med främst privatpersoner men också en expert på området. Slutsats: Studien har slagit fast att det råder ett attitude-behaviour gap på svenska marknaden för hållbara fonder. Vidare har slutsatsen dragits att det ej går att fastslå mängden kapital placerat i svenska hållbara fonder, detta med motiveringen att definitionsproblematiken och brist på vedertagna tredjepartsmärkningar gör det alltför osäkert. Slutligen har studien kommit fram till en rad olika faktorer som ligger till grund för attitude-behaviour gapet, bland dessa framträder oro kring avkastning, definitionsproblematik, kunskap och information som de mest avgörande.
Background: The interest in sustainable mutual funds and the supply of them has rapidly grown in Sweden during the last years. It is previously known that there is a problem with the definition of what a sustainable mutual fund is, which adds a layer of complexity to the market. Indications shows that there might be a discrepancy between the number of people that are interested in sustainable mutual funds and those who buys them. Purpose: The aim with this study is to determine whether an attitude-behaviour gap exists on the market for sustainable mutual funds. Furthermore, the study intends to estimate the amount of capital invested in the Swedish market for sustainable funds, that is to broader the perspective of the market and its size. Finally, if there is an existing attitude- behaviour gap, the authors want to examine the factors behind the gap. Completion: To be able to carry out the study, both quantitative and qualitative methods have been used. The quantitative parts were made with both a survey to determine whether there is an attitude-behaviour gap and data collection concerning the amount of capital allocated to Swedish sustainable mutual funds. The qualitative part has been carried out with the help of semi-structured interviews with mainly private savers but also an expert in the field. Conclusion: The study has established that there is an attitude-behaviour gap in the Swedish market for sustainable funds. Furthermore, the conclusion has been drawn that it is not possible to determine the amount of capital invested in Swedish sustainable mutual funds, the reason being that the definition problem and the lack of accepted third- party labels make it too uncertain. Finally, the study has come up with several different factors that form the underlying reasons of the attitude behaviour gap, concerns about yield, definition problems, knowledge and information as the most crucial.

Abstract:
How companies in the apparel industry produce their products is receiving increasingly more attention, both in the society and marketplace, as well as by consumers. Despite the increasing amount of corporate scandals and corporate irresponsibility within the apparel industry, the previous research conducted within this field has mainly focused on how positive CSR affects consumers. This thesis aims to investigate how Swedish consumers’ attitude and behaviour are affected by negative CSR in the apparel industry. In order to fulfil the purpose of this thesis, a mix of quantitative and qualitative research was used to conduct an abductive study. The data was gathered through a survey posted on social media and by performing semi-structured interviews with participants consisting of Swedish consumers. The authors of this thesis have identified that Swedish consumer’s attitude is affected by negative CSR performed by apparel companies. However, the change in consumer attitude did not necessarily transfer into a change in behaviour, which generates an attitude-behaviour gap. The key barriers identified contributing to this gap are Swedish consumers’ lack of knowledge, and that they generally value personal needs and wants such as price, quality, and style greater than social responsibility.

Abstract:

The trend of environmentally friendly consumption permeates our whole society and the general attitude towards the consumption of it is strongly positive. However, the existence of an attitude-behaviour gap became clear to us since the actual green consumption does not reflect the positive attitude. In this thesis focus is on one specific product - organic milk. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to explain the dissonance between attitude and behaviour towards organic milk. In order to reach our purpose we chose to perform a pilot study targeting students at the University of Linköping. Both qualitative and quantitative methods have been used in the collection of data. It has been done using a survey and interviews. We were able to establish the existence of an attitude-behaviour gap towards organic milk amongst students at the university, and that this gap in fact arises before an intention to buy organic milk is even formed. Since a behavioural intention is not formed, an actual corresponding behaviour will not occur. The attitude-behaviour gap is explained by the fact that other factors than attitude influence the formation of the intention. In this case the factors strongly counteracting the attitude are consumer habits, social influence, to what extent the consumer feels an ethical obligation to buy organically and whether the consumer identifies herself with the issue. Together, these factors are so strong that they succeed in neutralizing the positive attitude.


Dagens moderna samhälle genomsyras av en stark trend att konsumera miljövänligt och den allmänna attityden gentemot detta sätt att konsumera är starkt positiv. Dock blev det tydligt för oss att en dissonans mellan attityd och beteende finns, då den faktiska konsumtionen inte speglar den positiva attityden. I denna uppsats läggs fokus på konsumtionen av en specifik produkt, ekologisk mjölk. Därmed blir syftet med uppsatsen att förklara den dissonans som uppkommer mellan attityd och beteende vad gäller konsumtionen av ekologisk mjölk. För att uppnå vårt syfte valde vi att utföra en pilotstudie på studenter vid Linköpings universitet. Både kvantitativa och kvalitativa metoder i form av en enkätundersökning och intervjuer har använts i insamlandet av empirisk data. Vi kunde fastställa att det finns en dissonans mellan attityd och beteende mot ekologisk mjölk bland studenterna på universitet, och även att dissonansen uppkommer redan innan en intention att köpa har bildats. Detta attityd-beteende gap förklaras av att andra faktorer än attityd spelar in i bildandet av intentionen. I detta fall motverkas den starkt positiva attityden av faktorer såsom konsumentens vanor, social påverkan, graden av upplevd etisk förpliktelse mot att köpa ekologiskt och huruvida konsumenten idenfierar sig med frågan. Dessa faktorer är så pass starka att attitydens effekt neutraliseras och gapet uppstår.

Abstract:
Sustainability, and especially sustainable consumption, has become more important throughout the years in line with the challenges of climate change. A large majority of Swedish consumers have a positive attitude towards sustainable consumption. However, their actions do not speak louder than words. Many have the intention of buying sustainable products, but fewer actually buy sustainable products causing an attitude behaviour gap. This study aims to investigate the relation between green marketing and consumer decision making. Diving deeper into the grocery sector as well as the clothing sector the study examines the differences regarding the matter of green marketing and consumer decision-making.  With a theoretical starting point in the Theory of Planned Behaviour as well as green marketing, this quantitative study shows that green marketing has an effect on a consumer’s perceived behavioural control which in turn has an effect on the intention. However, the study also states that there is a gap between the intention of buying sustainable products, influenced by attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioural control, and the actual behaviour to buy sustainably. The study finds a moderately strong correlation between perceived behavioural control and green marketing. Further on, the study also notices a difference between the two sectors, where consumers are reached as well as affected by green marketing to a higher extent within the grocery sector than in the clothing sector.

This thesis aims to investigate sustainable apparel purchasing habits from customers’ perspective with an emphasis on attitude-behaviour towards the phenomenon. Furthermore, the possible attitude-behaviour gaps are detected throughout the research, illustrating dissimilarities in sustainable apparel consumption and discrepancies between actual purchasing action and consumer attitude. The study analyses Swedish consumption patterns, within Millennials and Generation X consumers by using a qualitative research strategy, where participants have the ability to express their perceptions on the concept and evaluate on their post-purchases. Two chosen models are used as fundamental pillars in understanding essential purchasing actions. The findings contribute to the models while also develop theories based on them.

Abstract:
In this thesis we examine the prevailing dilemma concerning fast fashion and an increased attitude-behaviour gap. Many previous studies have explored the subject of fast fashion and also tried to solve the problem with the attitude-behaviour gap. We want to take this a step further by investigating what influence fast fashion may have on consumers' perception of value. By exploring this we hope to gain further knowledge concerning the attitude-behavior gap.Our focus is on young female consumers, since previous studies show the likelihood of the gap between intent and action being the largest in this consumer group. To a certain extent it can be explained by their frequent purchase of fast fashion, but also the fact that younger consumers are more influenced by fashion press and celebrity culture. This study is foremost based on qualitative research and is completed with the use of two focus groups, as well as a more quantitative research in the form of a content analysis of the Swedish fashion magazine, Sofis Mode. The study has a deductive approach.The theoretical perspectives consist of theories concerning value; value in relation to price and the concept of value. We also present a redefined model of perceived value. The results show evidence of increased focus and exposure of low priced fashion and that the low perceived monetary price has a significant impact of consumers‟ perceived value of clothing. The focus on selling low price instead of value inclines that clothes have lost its intrinsic value, as a result making clothes easily replaceable. Our study further shows a smaller attitude-behaviour gap among consumers with a high knowledge of textiles and textile production.

Abstract:
Modebranschen är i ständig förändring. Den härda konkurrens som idag existerar i industrin sätter press på̊ företag, samtidigt är den moderna kunden ombytlig. Därmed blir relationen mellan kund och företag allt viktigare utifrån ett marknadsföringsperspektiv. För att skapa en relation mellan kund och företag väljer många företag därför att etablera kundklubbar. Kundklubbar kan även ses som ett effektivt sätt att påverka sina kunders köpbeteende och verka som attiydförändrare. Etiska och sociala avseenden blir allt viktigare för konsumenten, något som bekräftas i studien. Kunders köpbeteende kan förklaras med att det finns ett gap mellan attityd och agerande i en köpsituation, ett så kallat attitude-behaviour gap. Flera dimensioner finns i förklaringen till detta gap. Störst fokus ligger på̊ konsumentens bristande kunskap om hållbarhet vilket studien visar. Följande studie har undersökt värdet av kundklubbar ur både företagets och kundens perspektiv i en fast-fashion kontext. Genom intervjuer, fokusgrupp samt en enkät kunde frågeställningen besvaras och bekräftas. Utbildning av personal och Event Driven Marketing (EDM) i form av riktad marknadsföring är centrala lösningar som genomsyrar studiens resultat, vilket kan minska gapet. Genom utbildning kan företag effektivisera kommunikationen till kunden. Studien visar att en fortsatt implementering av EDM i kundklubben skapar ett ökat förtroende och lojalitet från kund till företag. Studien visar även att en kundklubb kan vara en effektiv marknadsföringskanal och fungera som ett verktyg för attitydförändring. En kundklubb utgör ett värde som nödvändigtvis inte behöver resultera i ett lojalitetsskapande men verka som attitydförändrare.

Abstract:
Textilindustrin har en omfattande negativ påverkan på miljön och konsumenters köpbeteende är en del av detta problem. Konsumenter påverkar mer än vad de är medvetna om genom vad de väljer att konsumera och hur mycket de inhandlar. Då kunden spelar en sådan stor roll i den faktiska miljöpåverkan väljer denna rapport att fokusera på kundbeteendet ur ett hållbarhetsperspektiv. Det finns ett tydligt gap mellan konsumenters attityd och beteende när det kommer till att konsumera kläder hållbart. Rapportens utgångspunkt är därför en studie av Hiller Connell (2010) gällande attityd-beteendegapet hos konsumenter när det kommer till just hållbar klädkonsumtion. Hiller Connell påvisar sex barriärer som hindrar konsument från att handla hållbara klädesplagg. Dessa hinder är konsuments kunskap och attityd gällande hållbarhet samt tillgänglighet av föredragna produkter, ekonomiska resurser, detaljhandelsmiljö samt rådande samhällsnormer. För att kunna undersöka detta gap och dess bakomliggande orsaker har data samlats in i genom garderobsanalys, som främst påvisar konsuments faktiska beteende. I kombination med en semistrukturerad intervju, som främst indikerar konsuments attityd till hållbar klädkonsumtion. Denna studie har genomförts på tio kvinnor i åldern 25 till 35. Analys av resultatet visar att barriärerna (Hiller Connell, 2010) även är påtagliga för denna studies respondenter. Det kan även konstateras att alla hinder är olika påtagliga för olika deltagare samt att typ av plagg påverkar detta. Denna studie finner att dessa hinder kan påverkas olika beroende på om plagg är miljömärkt, begagnat eller av bättre kvalité. Studien finner även ytterligare ett påtagligt hinder hos respondenter, nämligen deras eget engagemang till att konsumera kläder mer hållbart.
The textile industry has a negative impact on the environment and consumer behaviour when shopping for clothes is a part of this problem. Consumers affect more than they are aware of when choosing what and how much to consume when it comes to clothes. Therefore the way customers consume is a huge part of the impact the textile industry has on the environment. Because of this, the paper focuses on consumer behaviour from a sustainability perspective. It has been found that there is a gap between attitude towards consuming clothes that are sustainable and the actual behaviour. This paper draws on findings from a study by Hiller Conner (2010) that has studied the attitude-behaviour gap and have identified barriers that can affect it. These barriers include customer knowledge and attitude towards sustainability, availability of preferable products, customers economic resources, retail environment and social norms. In order to examine this gap and the reasons behind, data were collected through observations of consumers wardrobe to explore the actual behaviour when it comes to buying clothes. Furthermore, interviews and talking about the attitude towards their consumption of clothes were made. This study was made with the help of ten women between the age of 25 to 35. The findings shows that the barriers are in fact relevant. It is also found that they are not equally significant for all of the participants. Furthermore this study shows that the barriers are affected depending on what type of sustainable garment is consumed. As it is found a difference when buying garments that have eco-labels, secondhand or of better quality. This study also found an additional significant barrier among the respondents, their own engagement to consuming more sustainable clothes.

Abstract:
Many people care about the environment and are in favor of protecting it, but these concerns are imperfect determinants of behavior. There are good reasons for this “value-action gap”: incentives are frequently aligned against environmentally preferable action, and we each face so many daily environmentally relevant decisions that efforts to do the right thing consistently are daunting. These approaches can even backfire, as people dislike feeling judged, or may tire of constant efforts to behave and may backslide on good intentions. A more promising option for explaining or encouraging environmental behavior is invoking social norms. People modify their behavior to fit social expectations, so community decisions that work against environmental behavior can discourage beneficial behavior. Framing information in a way that demonstrates the environmentally beneficial choices of neighbors or group members increases willingness to make environmentally positive choices.

Abstract:
Despite having a pro-environment attitude, customers may not consistently reflect the same in their behaviour. This chapter explores the applicability of the social-normalisation theory to reduce the attitude-behaviour gap of customers for driving green behaviour in India. The theory argues that green behaviour can be driven by positioning green activities as normal. The chapter details the findings of an empirical study done across 496 customers pan India. Analysis done based on various techniques (Heat maps, factor analysis and regression) indicates that while a broader consensus existed among customers about what is green, the conceptions of normality of the activities vary thereby, corroborating the existence of an attitude-behaviour gap. Results shows that perceptions of what is normal have a significantly higher impact than perceptions of what is green and hence, social-normalisation theory can be applied to drive green marketing in developing countries like India.

Abstract:
Consumer ethics has increasingly attracted attention by academics and practitioners in recent years. Nonetheless, research so far has mostly focused on understanding consumer's ethical judgments and the associations between those ethics-related general attitudes and selected antecedents drawn from Hunt-Vittel Theory of Ethics. Nonetheless, evidence in practice raises more serious doubts about validity of ethical judgments as a measure of consumer ethics, reminding the attitude-behaviour gap that has been long discussed in the literature. On the other hand, as the ethical consumption turns to the mainstream market, there has been a question whether antecedents of consumer ethical behaviour widely investigated in the literature will exert the same influence on mainstream consumer behaviour. This chapter proposes a conceptual framework arguing for new approach to understand and measure ethical consumption. Implications and research directions are also provided.

Abstract:
Designing breakthrough products comes at a great cost to the design industry due to the risk and uncertainties associated with creative ideas. However, without creative ideas, there is no potential for innovation. As such, companies need to appropriately embrace the risk associated with creative concepts in the fuzzy front end of the design process in order to build their value. While previous research has linked risk taking attitudes to creative idea generation and selection in engineering design education, there has been limited research focused on engineering design professionals’ creative risk taking attitude and the corresponding driving factors. This is problematic because without this knowledge we do not know what factors inhibit or promote the flow of creative ideas in engineering design industry. In order to address this gap, a preliminary online survey was conducted with 46 design professionals from a global manufacturing company to understand the potential driving factors of creative risk taking, including educational training, job type (R&D, applied engineering, or management), and years of experience. The results suggest that there is a relationship between employee education level and years of experience and an engineering employee’s willingness to take risks on creative ideas in the fuzzy front end of the design process. Interestingly, the results also show that those individuals primarily responsible for the development (R&D) and selection (management) of creative ideas tend to be more financially risk averse than individuals in traditional engineering positions. These results contribute to the prediction of professionals’ design behaviors and have implications for the management of creative ideas in the early conceptual design stages of engineering design industry.

Abstract:
Discharging gas jets in low-pressure conditions are interesting and important phenomena from an engineering point of view. For example, in aerospace technology they relate to the gas jet thruster for attitude control of artificial satellite, or in laser technology assist gas behavior for laser material processing under low pressure. The jets, however, deform to the complicated shapes by interacting with solid walls. This paper deals with a visualization experiment on the interacting jet and plane wall by applying LIF (Laser Induced Fluorescence) method using an Ar-ion laser. We have obtained a series of jet-wall interacting images at various distances and clarified the behavior of impinging jet to the plane wall.

Eissa, Eiman Abdel Maksoud. "Consumer Behavior in Grocery Shopping: Qatari Community during the GCC Blockade." In Qatar University Annual Research Forum & Exhibition. Qatar University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.29117/quarfe.2020.0266.

Full text
Abstract:
While Qatar had the highest GDP in the world in 2016, it faced the dilemma of a blockade in June 2017. This had a direct effect on the Qatari community who united and showed clear signs of patriotism. Consumers turned from the blockade countries’ food products to products that were local or those that came from supporting countries. This blockade was seen as an economic opportunity for local brands as well as many international brands since 40% of the food that was previously available came from blockading countries (IISS, 2017). With this, many new brands entered the market and soon prospered. This research aims to compare the changes in the grocery shopping consumer behavior of the Qatari community at the start of the blockade and more than two years later. An Arabic language online survey is conducted on a non-probability-snowball sample of 194 respondents in 2017 and is repeated on a sample of 189 respondents in 2020. Results show that the subjective norm the Qatari community’s consumers have towards grocery products continues to be associated with the political positions of the countries of production. They also show that the most successful marketing technique used by grocery brands is “patriotism.” Moreover, they show that the Qatari community has become more focused on learning the properties and competitive advantages of the products. Conclusions show that the Qatari community has remained consistent with giving priority to buying groceries that support the country and its allies throughout the blockade. They also show that the consumers have become more aware in comparing available products and making educated buying decisions. Further research should be conducted to examine the changes in attitude and consumer behavior after the blockade is lifted.

Abstract:
Using microsurveys conducted in the People’s Republic of China over the past 2 decades, this paper explores the individual preferences among men and women toward sustainable consumption and production—the concept of doing more with less and decoupling economic growth from environmental degradation. The study finds that women exhibit greener living and working habits than men. However, women—regardless of education, rural–urban setting, or age—are impacted by time poverty, low political participation, limited awareness, gender norms, and, for younger and older women, financial limitations. To encourage and increase women’s capacity in shaping environmental solutions, economic and political gender gaps must be addressed and awareness on the impact of consumption needs to be strengthened.

Full text
Abstract:
The transportation studies literature recognizes the relationship between accessibility and active travel. However, there is limited research on the specific impact of walking and cycling accessibility to multi-use paths on active travel behavior. Combined with the culture of automobile dependency in the US, this knowledge gap has been making it difficult for policy-makers to encourage walking and cycling mode choices, highlighting the need to promote a walking and cycling culture in cities. In this case, a clustering effect (“you bike, I bike”) can be used as leverage to initiate such a trend. This project contributes to the literature as one of the few published research projects that considers all typical categories of explanatory variables (individual and household socioeconomics, local built environment features, and travel and residential choice attitudes) as well as two new variables (accessibility to multi-use paths calculated by ArcGIS and a clustering effect represented by spatial autocorrelation) at two levels (level 1: binary choice of cycling/waking; level 2: cycling/walking time if yes at level 1) to better understand active travel demand. We use data from the 2012 Utah Travel Survey. At the first level, we use a spatial probit model to identify whether and why Salt Lake City residents walked or cycled. The second level is the development of a spatial autoregressive model for walkers and cyclists to examine what factors affect their travel time when using walking or cycling modes. The results from both levels, obtained while controlling for individual, attitudinal, and built-environment variables, show that accessibility to multi-use paths and a clustering effect (spatial autocorrelation) influence active travel behavior in different ways. Specifically, a cyclist is likely to cycle more when seeing more cyclists around. These findings provide analytical evidence to decision-makers for efficiently evaluating and deciding between plans and policies to enhance active transportation based on the two modeling approaches to assessing travel behavior described above.
