This study aims at understanding, from a gender perspective, the reasons behind citizens’ choice of using public transport, and whether this choice is driven by pro-environmental behaviour. Using Eurobarometer data (2013), we perform ordered logistic regressions comparatively for Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.

Abstract

This study aims at understanding, from a gender perspective, the reasons behind citizens’ choice of using public transport, and whether this choice is driven by pro-environmental behaviour. Using Eurobarometer data (2013), we perform ordered logistic regressions comparatively for Germany, Italy and the Netherlands. Financial, political and environmental factors are shown to have significant roles in shaping travel behaviours, with interesting gender and cross-country differences.
