Determinants of Usage and Satisfaction
with Demand Responsive Transport
Systems in Rural Areas

This paper identified the decisive factors of DRT systems’ usage in rural areas by examining user characteristics, usage cases, and the determinants of satisfaction with such services. The findings suggest that DRT systems are used for both compulsory and nonmandatory trips and that the majority of users are female. However, the results from different user groups and services suggest that there are not unanimous determinants of the probability of traveling by DRT. With regard to overall satisfaction, it is found that it is related to satisfaction with both trip-level attributes and system design characteristics. The paper can be found in here.

What affects a driver's trust in automation? A methodology using objective and subjective measures

Our IVe Guest Professor, Samantha Jamson (from Leeds), gave presentation based on Trustonomy project which aimed to discover in which situations trust in vehicle automation can reduce and increase. One of the messages was: whilst the trust can be regained after a disappointment, it will not be the same trust as before.

The reciprocal effects of physical activities and ride-sourcing on health

Do you ever wonder the impacts of your intense physical activities, e.g. running and cycling, to the rest of your day's activities' participation? And whether the use of ridesharing for simple short trips would increase/decrease the probability of one to participate in more physical-demanding activities in home and work locations? This study explores the role of convenience travel alternative and the intensity of physically active activities to one's subjective health assessment. The paper can be found here.
