There is currently scant research on the role of transport priorities, risk perception and worry for travel mode use and preferences. The present study aims to examine these factors in relation to mode use and preferences among Norwegian commuters. A web-based survey was conducted in a randomly obtained representative sample of daily commuters in the extended greater Oslo area (n=690). The results showed that those who prioritized efficiency and flexibility tended to commute by car, while those who prioritized safety and comfort used public (e.g. metro, tram, and train) or active (e.g. walking and cycling) transport. In a free choice scenario, the respondents who prioritized flexibility reported a preference for using a car, whereas those who prioritized safety and comfort preferred public and active transport for their commuter travels. Risk perception of high impact events, such as terrorism and major accidents, as well as risk perception related to personal impact risks (theft, violence etc.) were related to car use on commuter travels. Transport-related worry exerted weak influences on mode use and preferences. Increased speed on rail transport and more frequent departures may be effective in reducing car use on commuter travels. Risk communication should focus on highlighting the low risk of experiencing security and safety issues in the public transport sector, and this message should be complemented by efforts to reduce the probability of negative events affecting public transport.
目前，关于交通优先级、风险认知和出行担忧对出行方式选择和偏好的作用的研究较少。本研究旨在考察挪威通勤者中这些因素与出行方式选择和偏好之间的关系。在大奥斯陆地区随机抽取了具有代表性的日常通勤者样本（n = 690）进行了一项基于网络的调查。结果显示，那些将效率和灵活性列为优先考虑因素的人倾向于开车通勤，而那些将安全和舒适度列为优先考虑因素的人则使用公共交通（如地铁、有轨电车和火车）或主动式交通（如步行和骑自行车）。在自由选择的情况下，将灵活性列为优先考虑因素的受访者表示更喜欢开车，而将安全和舒适度列为优先考虑因素的受访者则更喜欢在通勤时使用公共交通和主动式交通。对恐怖主义和重大事故等高影响事件的风险认知，以及与个人影响风险（盗窃、暴力等）相关的风险认知与通勤时开车有关。与交通相关的担忧对出行方式选择和偏好的影响较弱。提高铁路运输速度和增加发车频率可能有助于减少通勤时的汽车使用量。风险沟通应侧重于强调在公共交通部门遭遇安全问题的低风险，并且这一信息应辅以降低影响公共交通的负面事件发生概率的努力。
