An agent-based model to simulate pedestrians' affective experiences and activities for evaluating urban public space design
As urban development increasingly emphasizes creating healthy and inclusive environments to foster positive human-environment interactions and wellbeing, pedestrians' affective experiences and activity choices are gaining attention as important indicators for design evaluation. While many computational models of pedestrians focus on travel behavior and spatial efficiency, they often overlook the experiential quality of environments, which is crit…
Planning for preference heterogeneity, the case of housing and urban green space
Developing urban green space (UGS) is a widely considered way to mitigate negative effects of climate change and improve the quality of living environments in cities. Since UGS has to compete with other land-use demands, land-use models offer a valuable tool to optimize the spatial allocation of UGS. Current methods to empirically estimate the land-use models, however, do not take into account preference heterogeneity that may exist in a populati…
The relationship between parental perception of child friendliness in neighborhoods and children's physical activity
How do urban parks, neighborhood open spaces, and private gardens relate to individuals’ subjective well-being
As urban areas become more densely populated worldwide, the allocation of limited urban green infrastructure to promote well-being among users is becoming increasingly challenging. This study aims to understand the relationships of three types of urban green infrastructure (urban parks, neighborhood green open spaces and private gardens) with subjective well-being (SWB). We construct a structural equation model to examine these relationships in a…
Reference-dependent housing choice behaviour
Loss aversion has been identified as an inhibiting factor in residential mobility and may contribute to a well-documented reluctance to move of older people. This paper provides insights on whether loss aversion, in relation to the locational attributes of housing alternatives, affects the preference for alternative housing choices of older people. We propose an extended framework to measure symmetric as well as asymmetric valuation of losses and…
Modeling pedestrians' activity time-use choices in a virtual urban public space
Understanding pedestrians' time-use choices for multiple activities in urban public spaces is crucial for developing diverse and inclusive public spaces. Few studies have explored how pedestrians' time-use choices are influenced by the physical environment when engaging in various micro-level activities in public spaces, nor have they captured the influence of experience-based factors (e.g., emotion and perceptions) triggered by varying environme…
Comparing self-navigation and video mode in a choice experiment to measure public space preferences
3D dynamic visualization technologies are increasingly used in studying residents' preferences for urban planning and design scenarios. The techniques help concentrate respondent attention and improve the measurement quality of environmental preferences. However, little is known about differences in measurement quality between different 3D dynamic visualization modes. This paper applies two modes – a self-navigation mode and a video mode - in a v…
The Relationship between Walkability and Place Attachment and the Mediating Role of Neighborhood-Based Social Interaction
This study aims to provide insights in the relation between neighborhood walkability and place attachment and the mediating role of (satisfaction with) social interaction. Both objective and perceived walkability are tested. To analyze these relations, two structural equation models are estimated on data collected among 251 residents of different neighborhoods across the Netherlands. The results show that perceived neighborhood walkability is a s…
Individuals' perception of walkability
The impact of health vs. non-health goals on individuals’ lifestyle program choices
Background Goals play an important role in the choices that individuals make. Yet, there is no clear approach of how to incorporate goals in discrete choice experiments. In this paper, we present such an approach and illustrate it in the context of lifestyle programs. Furthermore, we investigate how non-health vs. health goals affect individuals’ choices via non-goal attributes. Methods We used an unlabeled discrete choice experiment about lifest…
Individuals' social preferences in joint activity location choice
An agent-based random-utility-maximization model to generate social networks with transitivity in geographic space
New ICTs and social interaction
New information and communication technologies (ICTs) have provided new ways of communicating and maintaining social networks. However, relatively little is known on the effect of ICT-use on social interaction. Therefore, this article aims to explore the factors influencing individuals’ communication frequency and choice of communication mode. The analyses are based on social interaction diary data gathered in 2008 in the Eindhoven region in the …
An Agent-Based Model of Residential Choice Dynamics in Nonstationary Housing Markets
This paper presents an agent-based model developed to simulate residential choice behaviour in a nonstationary housing market. The model is built around the assumption that agents have incomplete and imperfect knowledge, and thus have to base their decisions on beliefs. The aim is to illustrate how the agents deal with the uncertainty inherent in these beliefs, both at the level of a single agent, deciding among a set of successive actions, and a…
Individuals' Activity-Travel Rescheduling Behaviour
Rescheduling of daily activities and associated travel in response to unforeseen events such as travel delays is receiving increased attention in the context of traffic management. In this paper we describe the results of a stated adaptation experiment held among a large sample of individuals through a web-based questionnaire, to estimate parameters of such dynamic behaviour. In the experiment subjects indicated their response to a reduction in a…
Information impact on quality of multimodal travel choices
A Utility-Based Analysis of Activity Time Allocation Decisions Underlying Segmented Daily Activity-Travel Patterns
This paper reports the results of an application of the Aurora model to estimate the utility functions underlying activity-duration decisions in daily activity-travel patterns. Multidimensional sequence alignment is used to derive segments for activity-travel diary data, collected in the Amsterdam-Utrecht corridor in the Netherlands. The profiles of the resulting segments are derived from a descriptive analysis of sociodemographic variables. A ta…
The Impact of Simplification in a Sequential Rule-Based Model of Activity-Scheduling Behavior
The aim of this paper is to gain a better understanding of the impact of simplification on a sequential model of activity-scheduling behavior which uses feature-selection methods. To that effect, the predictive performance of the Albatross model, which incorporates nine different facets of activity-travel behavior, based on the original full decision trees, is compared with the performance of the model based on trimmed decision trees. The results…

A Position-Sensitive Sequence-Alignment Method Illustrated for Space-Time Activity-Diary Data
Sequence-alignment methods which have been recently introduced in time-use research analyse the cross-sectional as well as the sequential information embedded in space-time activity-diary data. As these methods have been developed to trace the evolutionary history of random mutations of the elements in biological sequences, they are not appropriate to measure the distances by which activities change their sequential order in activity diaries. In …
