Self-Selection in Home Choice (2008, background): “Ewing and Cervero provided a comprehensive review of such studies (2).”
Do changes in neighborhood characteristics lead to changes in travel behavior? A structural equations modeling approach (2007, background): “A large number of studies have investigated the relationship between the built environment and travel behavior since the 1990s (as reviewed in Crane, 2000; Ewing and Cervero, 2001; and Handy, 1996).”
Urban Land Area and Population Growth: A New Scaling Relationship for Metropolitan Expansion (2007, background): “Finally, if vehicle usage and levels of walking and other exercise are proportional to population density (Ewing and Cervero, 2001; Frank et al., 2005; Frumpkin, 2002; Holtzclaw et al., 2002) but intake fraction is proportional to LPD, this would suggest that small-population, high-density urban…”
Exploring Causal Effects of Neighborhood Type on Walking Behavior Using Stratification on the Propensity Score (2010, background): “Numerous studies since the 1990s have investigated the relationships between the built environment and travel behavior [as reviewed in Crane (2000), Ewing and Cervero (2001), Frank and Engelke (2001), and Handy, (1996)]. These studies have suggested that many attributes of traditional neighborhoods ”
Travel satisfaction revisited : on the pivotal role of travel satisfaction in conceptualizing a travel behavior process (2017, background): “…and car use significantly lower in compact, mixed-use neighbourhoods compared to low-density, single-use neighbourhoods where destinations are mostly not within walking or cycling distance and public transport services are limited (e.g., Cervero and Kockelman, 1997; Ewing and Cervero, 2001, 2010).”
Walkability of local communities: using geographic information systems to objectively assess relevant environmental attributes. (2007, methodology): “This sort of a programming tool based on ‘‘transportation efficient’’ or pedestrian and transit supportive land use planning is ripe for investigation (Ewing and Cervero, 2001).”
Household interactions and children’s school travel: the effect of parental work patterns on walking and biking to school (2008, background): “This confirms findings in adult travel that density has a modestly positive association with the amount of walking (Cervero and Kockelman, 1997; Ewing and Cervero, 2001; Lee and Moudon, 2006).”
The Walkability Premium in Commercial Real Estate Investments (2011, neutral): “Environmental benefits may include less air pollution, auto use and gasoline consumption (Frank, Stone and Bachman 2000, Ewing and Cervero 2001, Frank and Engelke 2005).”
Walkable Route Perceptions and Physical Features (2007, background): “Understanding these microlevel design features that support walking has been deemed the “newest frontier in travel research” (Ewing & Cervero, 2001, p. 102).”
Smart Growth and the Transportation-Land Use Connection: What Does the Research Tell Us? (2005, methodology): “Recent literature reviews document more than seventy studies published during the 1990s that have explored and quantified these relationships (e.g., Handy 1996; Boarnet and Crane 2001b; Ewing and Cervero 2001).”
Going soft: on how Subjective Variables Explain Modal Choices for Leisure Travel (2011, background): “Literature reviews (e.g., Crane, 2000; Ewing and Cervero, 2001; Handy, 2002, 2005; Stead and Marshall, 2001; Van Acker et al., 2010a) summarize various variables that are commonly used to explain this relationship.”
Examining the Impacts of Residential Self‐Selection on Travel Behaviour: A Focus on Empirical Findings (2009, background): “…the strengths and weaknesses of each approach rather than each study and without presenting empirical findings from specific studies.1 In contrast, Ewing and Cervero (2001), for example, reviewed more than 50 studies that explored the influences of BE elements (such as design and land use…”
