Abstract

The study investigates car purchase intention among students. We advance existing literature by proposing a model integrating parent influence, attitude toward car ownership and psychological predictors in the scope of family or household decision-making. We collected 514 multi-actor sample data consisting of fathers, mothers, and their young adult children from the Jakarta metropolitan area. The results show that parents’ car attitudes are determinants of their influence on their children’s car purchases. The influence is further indirectly related to the child’s perception of their parent’s expectations which in turn depends on the closeness of family relationships. Moreover, children’s car attitude toward the prestige value of a car and their father’s influence significantly affects their car purchase intention. Based on this, we suggest that it is important to target families instead of only young adults in mobility intervention policies.

父母对子女购车意向的影响

本研究调查了学生的购车意向。我们提出了一个模型，将父母的影响、对汽车所有权的态度和心理预测因素整合到家庭或住户决策的范围内，从而推进了现有文献的研究。我们从雅加达大都会地区收集了 514 个多因素样本数据，包括父亲、母亲及其年幼的成年子女。结果显示，父母的汽车态度是影响子女购车的决定因素。这种影响还与子女对父母期望的感知间接相关，而父母对子女期望的感知又取决于家庭关系的亲密程度。此外，子女对汽车声望价值的态度和父亲的影响也会显著影响他们的购车意向。在此基础上，我们建议，在流动性干预政策中，重要的是要以家庭而不仅仅是年轻人为目标。

期刊介绍： In our first issue, published in 1972, we explained that this Journal is intended to promote the free and vigorous exchange of ideas and experience among the worldwide community actively concerned with transportation policy, planning and practice. That continues to be our mission, with a clear focus on topics concerned with research and practice in transportation policy and planning, around the world. These four words, policy and planning, research and practice are our key words. While we have a particular focus on transportation policy analysis and travel behaviour in the context of ground transportation, we willingly consider all good quality papers that are highly relevant to transportation policy, planning and practice with a clear focus on innovation, on extending the international pool of knowledge and understanding. Our interest is not only with transportation policies - and systems and services – but also with their social, economic and environmental impacts, However, papers about the application of established procedures to, or the development of plans or policies for, specific locations are unlikely to prove acceptable unless they report experience which will be of real benefit those working elsewhere. Papers concerned with the engineering, safety and operational management of transportation systems are outside our scope.
