Joint RP–SP data in a mixed logit analysis of trip timing decisions (2008, methodology): “The problem of representing travel time uncertainty in SP surveys, capturing the respondents actual valuation of uncertainty and still make it interpretable for non-professionals has been discussed by several authors (see Bates et al. (2001)).”
A Reliability-Based Stochastic Traffic Assignment Model for Network with Multiple User Classes under Uncertainty in Demand (2006, background): “For example, Bates et al. (2001) revealed that punctuality was indeed highly valued by commuters.”
The value of travel time variance (2010, result): “Noland and Small (1995) and Bates et al. (2001) preceded Fosgerau and Karlstrom (2010) with similar results for some speci c travel time distributions. a is written as (t; a) = (a t) + max (0; a) + max (0; a) ; (1) where > 0 is the marginal value of travel time (a t) ; > 0 is the marginal cost of…”
Value of Travel Time Reliability: A Review of Current Evidence (2010, background): “Bates et al. (2001) and Cook et al. (1999) verified the understanding of respondents by presenting closely matching pairs of questions.”
Revisiting reference point formation, gains-losses asymmetry and non-linear sensitivities with an emphasis on attribute specific treatment (2012, background): “The attributes173 and levels are described in Table 1.174 Given the large number of attributes, a highly detailed representation of crowding (Hensher175 et al., 2003) or reliability (see e.g. Bates et al., 2001, Batley et al., 2011) was not feasible.”
Effective ways to grow urban bus markets: a synthesis of evidence (2007, background): “A number of studies have highlighted bus reliability as a critical influence on bus markets (CILT, 1985; Bates et al., 2001).”
A cost–benefit analysis of the Stockholm congestion charging system (2009, background): “9*(value of time)*(standard deviation of travel time), following Noland and Small (1995), Bates et al. (2001), Eliasson (2003) and Hamer et al.”
The Impact of Stop-Making and Travel Time Reliability on Commute Mode Choice (2006, background): “In contrast to the documented evidence from qualitative and attitudinal surveys on the importance of travel time reliability and alternative theories of travel time reliability effects on travel choices, few empirical studies consider reliability as an attribute affecting commute travel decisions (b”
Valuing travel time variability: Characteristics of the travel time distribution on an urban road (2012, background): “2005; 13 Brownstone and Small 2005; Lam and Small 2001, among others). The mean–variance approach 14 has however been criticized on various grounds. A main criticism is that it does not take that shape 15 of the travel time distribution into account. Another important criticism is that the standard ”
Analytic Relationships between Travel Time Reliability Measures (2011, background): “reviewed the progress made before 2001 toward a general theory of travelers’ valuation of travel time reliability (12).”
Travel through time: the story of research on travel time reliability (2013, methodology): “The major features of travel time variability found by Bates et al. (2001) were its impact on the use of time, with late arrival, missed connections and spending longer than desired or expected in travel activities being major concerns for travellers.”
