当前国际旅行和旅游的一个重要方面是它们在多大程度上成为个人、家庭和各种组织生活的常规和规定部分。在个人和家庭层面，正规化国际流动模式往往仅在远远超过长途旅行调查中通常使用的参考期的时间范围内显现出来。因此需要其他方法来解决这些问题。本文讨论了正在进行的瑞典年轻人国际流动性研究中使用的一种特殊方法。高中最后一年的学生被要求制定他们的国际流动传记，即他们在童年和青少年时期进行的所有国际旅行。本文讨论了这种“传记方法”收集有关各种形式的国际流动正规化或制度化信息的潜力。所建议的方法是通过回顾流动性和旅游研究领域的相关传记概念和方法来结合背景的。然后参考从瑞典年轻人国际流动性研究中获得的初步经验，讨论了回顾性收集旅行行为信息所涉及的方法挑战。
An important aspect of current international travel and tourism is the degree to which they are becoming embedded as regularised and prescribed parts of the lives of individuals, families, and various organisations. At the individual and family levels, patterns of regularised international mobility often only manifest themselves on a time scale that far exceeds that of the reference periods normally used in long-distance travel surveys. Other methods are thus needed to address these issues. This paper discusses a particular method used in ongoing research into the international mobility of young Swedes. Students in the last year of upper secondary school are asked to formulate their international mobility biographies, i.e. all international trips conducted during their childhood and adolescence. The paper discusses the potential of such a ‘biographical approach’ to gathering information about various forms of the regularisation or institutionalisation of international mobility. The approach suggested is contextualised through a review of relevant biographically oriented concepts and approaches in the fields of mobility and tourism research. Methodological challenges involved in collecting information on travel behaviour retrospectively are then discussed, with reference to initial experience gained from research concerning the international mobility of young Swedes.
