本研究调查的影响，使用一个概念地图为基础的“混搭”（www.accessadvisr.net）提供自愿（即用户贡献）方便的访问信息的旅行者有限的流动性。在里约热内卢进行了一项以旅程规划为中心的用户试验，有20名参与者，平均分为（1）由于残疾、疾病或受伤而行动不便的人，和（2）由于有年幼子女的父母在使用公共交通工具时不得不使用儿童推车而实际行动不便的人。两个用户组都认为这个概念很有用，但它对婴儿车用户组的潜在影响较小。关于mashup是否能够传达旅行规划所需信息的可信度、可信度和可靠性，人们的看法不一。该研究确定了一些关键的信息相关的用户需求，这有助于有效地设计用户贡献的基于网络的资源，为旅行者与移动相关的问题。
This study investigates the impact of using a concept map-based ‘mashup’ (www.accessadvisr.net) to provide volunteered (i.e. user contributed) ease of access information to travellers with limited mobility. A scenario-based user trial, centred around journey planning, was undertaken with 20 participants, divided equally between (1) those who have physical restrictions on their mobility, due to disability, illness or injury, and (2) those with practical mobility constraints due to being parents with young children who have to use a child’s pushchair when using public transport. Both user groups found the concept useful, but its potential impact was less for the pushchair user group. There were mixed views in relation to the ability of the mashup to convey the trustworthiness, credibility and reliability of information necessary for journey planning. The study identified a number of key information-related user requirements which help enable effective design of user contributed web-based resources for travellers with mobility-related issues.
