Why is there change in travel behaviour? In search of a theoretical framework for mobility biographies

In the past decade, life course approaches to travel have emerged that seek to understand the dynamics of travel behaviour over the life course. While this concept, often labelled ‘mobility biographies’, has generated a multitude of studies, it still lacks theoretical underpinning. This paper discusses key concepts drawn primarily from psychology and sociology that may help understand the mechanisms that contribute to stability and change in travel behaviour. Specifically, it discusses levels of change and stability (ranging between the individual and ‘the system’), factors that serve resistance to change (habits, heuristics, personalities, and regimes), factors that trigger change (such as changed requirements, opportunities, or abilities; motivation; the interplay between attitudes and context; stress; expected outcome of change), stages of behavioural change, and the role of socialisation in stability and change. The paper concludes with an outline of research needs. This includes making stronger links between qualitative and quantitative approaches, linking mobility biographies with research on the social embedding of travel, looking at interactions between life domains, behavioural dimensions, and population groups, and the further development of policy approaches.

为什么旅行行为会发生变化?寻找流动传记的理论框架

在过去十年中,出现了旅行的生命历程方法,旨在了解生命历程中旅行行为的动态。虽然这个通常被称为“流动传记”的概念已经产生了大量研究,但它仍然缺乏理论基础。本文讨论了主要来自心理学和社会学的关键概念,这些概念可能有助于理解有助于稳定和改变旅行行为的机制。具体来说,它讨论了变化和稳定性的水平(介于个人和“系统”之间)、抵抗变化的因素(习惯、启发式、个性和制度),引发变化的因素(例如变化的要求、机会、或能力;动机;态度和环境之间的相互作用;压力;预期的变化结果),行为变化的阶段,以及社会化在稳定和变化中的作用。论文最后概述了研究需求。这包括在定性和定量方法之间建立更紧密的联系,将流动性传记与旅行的社会嵌入研究联系起来,研究生活领域、行为维度和人口群体之间的相互作用,以及政策方法的进一步发展。
