摘要推广环保出行方式是实现可持续交通的重要战略。以往的研究表明，环保意识和环保出行方式之间存在着积极的关系，但很少有研究考虑到环保行为和出行方式的选择，特别是在非西方国家。本研究以东京、北京、上海和新加坡为例，利用原始调查数据，分析了环保行为对通勤方式选择的影响。我们使用多指标多原因模型来构建环境友好行为的潜变量。多项逻辑回归分析结果显示：（1）东京和新加坡的环保活动与通勤方式选择无关;（2）北京的循环利用和节能活动与自行车/步行通勤正相关;（3）北京和上海的环保活动参与者较少使用环保通勤方式。研究结果为习惯不连续性假说提供了支持性证据，并表明环境友好型出行方式选择与其他环境活动之间可能存在替代效应。
Abstract Promoting pro-environmental travel modes is an important strategy for sustainable transportation. Previous studies have shown a positive relationship between environmental awareness and environmental-friendly travel modes, but very few studies have considered pro-environmental behaviour and choice of travel mode, particularly in the context of non-Western countries. This study examines the impact of pro-environmental behaviour on the choice of commuting mode in Tokyo, Beijing, Shanghai and Singapore using original survey data. We use the Multiple Indicator Multiple Cause model to construct latent variables of environmentally friendly behaviours. The multinomial logistic regression results indicate that (1) pro-environmental activities and commuting mode choice are unrelated in Tokyo and Singapore, (2) recycling and energy-savings activities are positively related to commuting by bicycle/on foot in Beijing, and (3) participants in organised pro-environmental activities are less likely to use pro-environmental commuting modes in Beijing and Shanghai. The results provide supporting evidence of the habit discontinuity hypothesis and suggest a possible substitution effect between environmentally friendly travel mode choice and other environmental activities.
