Investigation into Teleworking and its Relationships with Gender, Mobility, and Paid-Work-Life Balance
This paper addresses gender differences in dealing with teleworking and their effects on everyday mobility by means of a cross-sectional survey. The results show gender-based differences in dealing with teleworking, attitudes to it and the use of time saved by not commuting. Frequent teleworking is associated with longer commuting times to main offices and accentuates gender differences. Research should address that teleworking is highly interwov…
Tourists’ preventive travel behaviour during Covid-19
Previous studies that extended the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) with the Health Belief Model (HBM) did not integrate all constructs. To address this research gap, we combined those two theories and the subscale on Domain-Specific Risk-Taking (DOSPERT) to predict tourists’ willingness to apply NPIs against COVID-19 while travelling. The proposed hypotheses on the mediating role of attitudes were tested using structural equation modelling base…
The effects of teleworking on CO2 emissions from commuting
The quantitative monitoring of the greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation potential of interventions is central to a living-lab approach and is a methodological challenge. Valid population data on consumption patterns and mobility behaviour are often scarce, especially when the living lab is initially set up (for example, the need for baseline data before an intervention). In the context of transportation studies, a cross-sectional survey was carried ou…
A comparative study of eight Covid-19 protective measures and their impact on Swiss tourists’ travel intentions
A comparative vignette-based experimental survey design incorporating various socio-psychological factors, linked to the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), the Health Belief Model (HBM) and the Domain-Specific Risk-Taking scale (DOSPERT) was carried out to test variations in eight travel-related COVID-19 protective measures on Swiss tourists' travel intentions. Among the tested measures, vaccination passports, surgical masks and quarantining are t…
The mediating role of perceived benefits on intentions to book a sustainable hotel
The theory of planned behaviour (TPB) was applied to analyse the role of perceived benefits (PB) on intentions to book a sustainable hotel. Data for the research came from 2564 respondents to an online survey conducted in Switzerland, Germany, and USA. A multi-group structural equation modelling (SEM) determined how PB (environmental, social, and economic) played a mediating role on booking intentions (BI) in the three markets and identified sign…
Carsharing in Switzerland
Contemporary Challenges of Climate Change, Sustainable Tourism Consumption, and Destination Competitiveness
This volume presents twenty updated and new theories oftravelers decisions and behaviors. It describes the advances in theory construction and practical applications of theory in the disciplines of tourism, hospitality, leisure, and entertainment (THLE) research. The chapters all build on the grand models appearing in these four literature streams during 1965-2015. This approach is comprehensive in both coverage and depth with regard to construct…
Rethinking social psychology and intervention design
Mobilities and Inequality
Leisure mobility styles in Swiss conurbations
Social-Activity Travel
In the relatively new field of social-activity travel behavior research, it has often been stated that social relationships have become increasingly physically dispersed in various contemporary societies. If so, this dynamic has enormous consequences on both travel behavior and social support. More explicitly, people have to travel some distance in order to meet, they need to plan their social activities further ahead of time, and, sociologically…
