| dc.description.abstract | The goal of this study is to analyse the differences in attitudes towards habitual modes of transportation among users of public and private transportation. The explanatory capacity of attitudes when determining the mode choice, along with the structural and sociodemographic factors, are also verified. The study was performed in three Spanish cities with 742 participants. The results revealed that cars are better rated than public modes of transportation in the attributes associated with immediate advantages (i.e., speed and availability) and convenience. Subways are highly rated in both immediate and deferred advantages (environment, safety, cost and health). Buses are the mode rated the lowest of the three. Using logistic regression, it was verified that the variance explained by a model that includes attitudes (R2 = .639) is higher than the variance explained by a model based solely on variables related to infrastructures (R2 = .489). The discussion of these results includes proposals aimed at decreasing car use. | spa |

| dc.description.impact | El objetivo del presente trabajo es analizar, entre usuarios de transporte público y privado, las diferencias en actitudes hacia su modo de transporte habitual. Asimismo, se ha comprobado la capacidad explicativa de las actitudes para determinar la elección del modo de transporte, junto con los factores estructurales y sociodemográficos. El estudio se ha llevado a cabo en tres ciudades españolas, habiendo participado 742 personas. Los resultados revelan que el automóvil es mejor valorado que los modos públicos en los atributos asociados a ventajas inmediatas (p.e., rapidez o disponibilidad) y la comodidad. El metro es bien valorado tanto en ventajas inmediatas como en diferidas (medio ambiente, seguridad, coste y salud). El autobús es el modo menos valorado, en comparación con el resto. Mediante regresión logística se ha comprobado que la varianza explicada por un modelo en el que se incluyen las actitudes (R2 = .639) es mayor que la explicada por un modelo basado solamente en variables relacionadas con las infraestructuras (R2 = .489). La discusión de estos resultados se vincula con actuaciones dirigidas a disminuir el uso del automóvil. | |
