Longitudinal Wave

General Information

Title
MPN 2016
Abstract
The MPN's main objectives are to establish short-run and long-run dynamics in travel behaviour of individuals and households, and to determine how changes in personal and household characteristics and in other travel-related factors (e.g. economic crisis, reduced taxes on sustainable transport, changes in land-use or increased availability and use of ICT) correlate with changes in travel behaviour.

Questions

Questionnaire: Mpn_diary

The travel data of the MPN are collected via location-based travel diaries, completed online, in which the respondents enter information about locations, activities and the associated trip-segments and trips. The collected diary data are questioned to the respondents in a specific order – the so-called ‘routing’ (find a detailed description of the routing here). In order to obtain the desired trip data, the acquired data are processed. The answers to the questions from ‘Questionnaire Mpn_diary’ are the input for the processing; the processing step results in the variables found in the data sets. Most answers do not correspond one-to-one with the variables found in the data sets. The relation between specific diary questions/answers and variables from the data sets can be found under 'Related Variables'.
