To understand patterns and influences on active commuting (AC) behavior.
Students and faculty/staff at a university campus.
In April-May 2008, respondents answered an online survey about mode of travel to campus and influences on commuting decisions. Hierarchical regression analyses predicted variance in walking and biking using sets of demographic, psychological, and environmental variables.
Of 898 respondents, 55.7% were female, 457 were students (50.4%). Students reported more AC than faculty/staff. For students, the models explained 36.2% and 29.1% of the variance in walking and biking, respectively. Among faculty/staff, the models explained 45% and 25.8% of the variance in walking and biking. For all models, the psychological set explained the greatest amount of variance.
With current economic and ecological concerns, AC should be considered a behavior to target for campus health promotion.
了解积极通勤(AC)行为的模式和影响因素。
大学校园的学生和教职员工。
2008 年 4 月至 5 月,受访者在线回答了一份关于校园出行方式和通勤决策影响的调查。分层回归分析使用一组人口统计学、心理学和环境变量预测步行和骑自行车的差异。
在 898 名受访者中,55.7%为女性,457 名为学生(50.4%)。学生的 AC 出行比例高于教职员工。对于学生,模型分别解释了步行和骑自行车的 36.2%和 29.1%的差异。对于教职员工,模型分别解释了步行和骑自行车的 45%和 25.8%的差异。对于所有模型,心理因素集解释了最大的差异。
鉴于当前的经济和生态问题,应将 AC 视为校园健康促进的目标行为。
