Basic Analyses on Travel Behaviors of Households with Children

本研究旨在分析有子女家庭的旅游行为。在东京和富山收集的数据用于分析儿童对联合旅行行为的影响，而在斯里兰卡农村地区收集的数据用于家庭旅行行为的医疗服务。对东京和富山家庭出行的分析表明，儿童数量、性别和年龄对家庭联合出行的时间和费用有显著影响。对斯里兰卡家庭前往医疗服务的分析表明，到最近的医院就医的机会很小。

This study aims to analyze the travel behavior of households with children. The data collected in Tokyo and Toyama are used for analyzing the impacts of children on the joint travel behavior whereas the data collected in rural areas of Sri Lanka is used for the household travel behavior to medical service. The analyses of household travels in Tokyo and Toyama show that the number of children, their gender, and age significantly affect the time and cost in joint travel behavior in the households. The analyses of household travel to medical service in Sri Lanka show the poor accessibility to the nearest hospitals.
