摘要

对汽车的依赖带来了许多负面的社会和环境外部性,这是政策制定者和利益相关者需要考虑的。尽管如此,这一概念没有得到很好的定义,缺乏关于其决定因素和机制的明确框架,这也导致了其运作方面的问题。因此,本文提出了汽车依赖的概念化和可操作性,这可以作为进一步研究和政策的基础。我们将汽车依赖定义为一个人在没有汽车的情况下无法以令人满意的方式参与基于位置的活动的程度。这一定义基于能力方法和运动性概念的理论背景,也与可及性概念有关。我们的概念模型由七个组成部分组成,其中大部分是在以前的概念中单独考虑的,即土地利用系统、交通系统、自然环境、时间组成部分、社会环境和个人客观/主观特征。这些组成部分的范围从外部的个体(例如土地使用系统)到内部的个体(例如个体特征)。综合考虑这些因素强调了以整体、统一的方式看待汽车依赖的重要性。这种方法有助于更好地理解汽车依赖,超越了以往研究中对组件的明确分析。此外,我们提供了一个系统的方法来操作汽车依赖,有助于一个更具可比性的方法来衡量汽车依赖。研究人员必须决定他们是想通过汽车的组成部分还是通过个人的自我报告来研究汽车依赖,他们是想研究全部的组成部分还是只研究一部分,他们是否想考虑关于外部组成部分的感知或事实信息。因此,我们的概念和操作为新的研究方向和政策方法提供了有价值的汽车依赖新见解。

Stuck in the driver’s seat: a conceptualisation for understanding car dependence and its determinants
Car dependence brings along many negative social and environmental externalities that policymakers and stakeholders need to consider. Nonetheless, the concept is not well defined and lacks a clear framework regarding its determinants and mechanisms, which also leads to problems in terms of its operationalisation. Therefore, this paper proposes a conceptualisation and operationalisation of car dependence, which can serve as a basis for further research and policy. We define car dependence as the extent to which an individual is incapable to participate in location-based activities without a car in a satisfactory way. This definition is based on the theoretical background of the capabilities approach and the concept of motility and also linked to the concept of accessibility. Our conceptual model consists of seven components, most of which have been considered separately in previous conceptualisations, namely the land use system, transport system, natural environment, temporal component, social environment, and individual objective/subjective characteristics. These components range from being external to the individual (e.g. the land use system) to internal (e.g. individual features). Considering these components jointly emphasises the importance of looking at car dependence in a holistic, unifying way. This approach contributes to a better understanding of car dependence that goes beyond the explicit analysis of components in previous research. In addition, we provide a systematic approach to operationalising car dependence that contributes to a more comparable approach to measuring car dependence. Researchers have to decide whether they want to examine car dependence via its components or via self-report by individuals, whether they want to study the full set of components or only a subset, and whether they want to consider perceptions or factual information about external components. Therefore, our conceptualisation and operationalisation provide valuable new insights into car dependence regarding new research directions and policy approaches.

期刊介绍: Transport Reviews is an international journal that comprehensively covers all aspects of transportation. It offers authoritative and current research-based reviews on transportation-related topics, catering to a knowledgeable audience while also being accessible to a wide readership. Encouraging submissions from diverse disciplinary perspectives such as economics and engineering, as well as various subject areas like social issues and the environment, Transport Reviews welcomes contributions employing different methodological approaches, including modeling, qualitative methods, or mixed-methods. The reviews typically introduce new methodologies, analyses, innovative viewpoints, and original data, although they are not limited to research-based content.
