9308394 THILL The importance of constraints in spatial choice by individuals is widely recognized in geography and related disciplines, but relatively little attention has focused on the development of empirically verified models of spatial choice that effectively incorporate constraints. A potentially fruitful line of inquiry is the identification of destinations selected by travelers when travel time and other constraints are imposed on the spatial decision-making process. This project will examine the impacts of constraints on destination choice through development and testing of models based on random-utility theory. Tractable specifications of random-utility models that include the effects of travel time and other constraints will be identified, with special attention given to analysis of the effect of constraints on formation of the sets from which travelers choose their destinations. The models developed in initial phases of this project will be tested using detailed data on non-work travel behavior taken at ten-year intervals over two decades in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area. This project will contribute to development of models of destination choice that more realistically account for behavioral variations among individuals, especially with respect to the role of constraints in the selection of destinations. Through model development and empirical testing, general knowledge of spatial decision making will be advanced. The results of this research also will have practical advantages for transportation planning. ***

小行星9308394 在空间选择的重要性，个人的限制被广泛认为是在地理和相关学科，但相对较少的注意力集中在发展的经验验证模型的空间选择，有效地将限制。 一个潜在的富有成效的调查线是确定旅行者选择的目的地时，旅行时间和其他限制施加在空间决策过程。 本项目将通过开发和测试基于随机效用理论的模型，研究限制因素对目的地选择的影响。 随机效用模型，包括旅行时间和其他约束的影响，将确定易处理的规格，特别注意分析的影响，旅客选择他们的目的地的集合的形成的约束。 在该项目的初始阶段开发的模型将使用明尼阿波利斯-圣保罗大都市区20年来每隔10年采集的非工作旅行行为的详细数据进行测试。 该项目将有助于发展目的地选择模型，更现实地说明个人之间的行为差异，特别是在目的地选择中的限制因素的作用。 通过模型开发和实证检验，将推进空间决策的一般知识。 研究结果对交通规划也具有一定的实用价值。 ***
