This paper jointly examines the length between successive participations in several activity purposes using a 1999 multi-week travel survey conducted in the German cities of Halle and Karlsruhe. A multivariate hazard model that accommodates a flexible duration dynamics structure, recognizes the...

This paper formulates a model for the joint analysis of the imperfect and perfect substitute goods case. That is, it enables the modeling of choice situations where consumers choose multiple alternatives at the same time from a certain set of alternatives, but also choose only one alternative...

Though most hurricane evacuation studies have focused on residents, tourists are also a vulnerable population. To assess their perceptions of risk and evacuation likelihood under different hurricane conditions, we surveyed 448 tourists visiting central Florida. Respondents viewed four maps...

Tourists are particularly vulnerable to natural disasters such as hurricanes since they might be less informed and prepared than residents of disaster-prone areas. Thus, understanding how the traits of a tropical cyclone as well as specific characteristics of tourists influence affective and...

This study developed models that relate trip lengths to the land-use characteristics at the trip ends (both production and attraction ends). Separate models were developed by trip purpose. The results indicate several statistically significant and intuitively reasonable effects of land-use...
