Descriptive analysis, which include frequency distributions, Factor Analysis, and correlations, have been developed to find potential relations among the studied variables. Maintenance activities are the most frequent, followed by discretionary activities. Only 10% of the total activities are mandatory. Approximately one third of trips are carried out by private vehicle. Motorized travel modes are characterized as noisy and powerful, in particular cars, while walking and cycling are simple and quiet. 2352-1457 https://katalogoa.mondragon.edu/janium-bin/janium_login_opac.pl?find&ficha_no=162942 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11984/5618 travel behavior travel modes attitudes measurement semantic scales Connotative meaning of travel modes and activity-travel behavior
