公共交通（PT）系统在满足通勤者的出行需求方面发挥着至关重要的作用，特别是在城市环境中。然而，随着不同的态度，信仰，和通勤者的满意度水平，它是必要的检查，如果目前的PT系统是能够满足通勤者的需求。为了提取可能影响PT使用的潜在因素，在日本石川的金泽市进行了问卷调查。利用计划行为理论（TPB）的理论背景，从居民的态度、主观规范（SN）、感知行为控制、道德和环境关注、公共交通可达性（APT）和出行成本意识（TCC）等方面对居民的出行意愿和公共交通行为（PT行为）进行预测。个人规范（PN）和环境关注（EC）因子的结果表明，受访者对保护环境的道德义务的信念较高，更喜欢使用PT旅行。APT与PT行为变量具有正的显著估计。TCC因子分析结果表明，出行者对出行成本和出行时间要素的认知对出行选择有显著影响。本研究的结果可以为金泽和其他具有类似社会经济人口的城市的政府以及PT服务运营商提供有价值的见解。
Public Transport (PT) systems play an essential role in fulfilling the travel needs of the commuters’ specially in the urban settings. However, with varying attitudes, beliefs, and satisfaction levels of commuters, it is imperative to check if the current PT system is able to fulfill the needs of the commuters. In order to extract the underlaying factors which might affect the use of PT, a questionnaire survey was administrated in the city of Kanazawa, Ishikawa, Japan. The intentions of the residents of the city were predicted using the theoretical backgrounds of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), based on their attitudes, Subjective Norms (SN), Perceived Behavioral Control, Moral and Environmental Concerns, Access by Public Transport (APT), and Travel Cost Consciousness (TCC), the intentions and public transport behavior (PT behavior) was predicted. The results of Personal Norm (PN) and Environmental Concern (EC) factor shows that respondents place high belief on moral obligations to protect environment and prefer using PT for traveling. The APT has a positive and significant estimate with PT behavior variable. The results of TCC factor depict that the traveler’s consciousness about cost and travel time elements of their journey would cause significant impact on their travel choices. The findings of this research study can offer valuable insights for the government as well as PT service operators for policy making in Kanazawa and other cities with similar socio-economic demographics in the country.
