| 摘要： | Gender and household life-cycle together affect daily travel behavior. While this makes intuitive sense, transportation planners and policy makers/shapers have done little to understand what effect and impact these factors have on daily transportation choices. This paper uses the 1995 Nationwide Personal Transportation Survey (NPTS) to examine trip chaining behavior of adult men and women traveling Monday through Friday. The data show that women continue to make more trips to perform household-sustaining activities such as shopping and family errands to a greater extent than men. Women, especially with children in the household, are more likely to chain these household sustaining trips to the trip to and from work. Womens participation in the labor force is at an all time high, but womens patterns in travel to work are different from mens patterns, and vary with family and life cycle status. The type and location of jobs that women take are likely affected by their greater household and family responsibilities. |
