Modelling the relationship between travel behaviours and social disadvantage (2016, background): “This can be particularly important where it is clear that different sectors of the population are behaving in fundamentally different ways, as shown in the case of low-income households in the UK (Dargay, 2001).”
The effect of prices and income on cartravel in the UK (2007, methodology): “Using the same data, the effects of income and transport costs on car ownership in rural and urban areas is investigated in Dargay (2002) and the question of asymmetry in the relationship between car ownership and income is addressed in Dargay (2001).”
Equity in transport: The distribution of transit access and connectivity among affordable housing units (2013, background): “The inverse of this relationship has also been found, such that a reduction in household income leads to a reduction in vehicle ownership (Dargay, 2001).”
Vehicle Ownership and Income Growth, Worldwide: 1960-2030 (2007, methodology): “2 See Dargay-Gately (1999) for a simpler model, using a smaller set of countries. Previous work in summarized in Mogridge (1983), which discusses vehicle ownership being modelled by various S-shaped functions of time, rather than of per-capita income.”
What Affects Transit Ridership? A Dynamic Analysis involving Multiple Factors, Lags and Asymmetric Behaviour (2011, background): “There are a few exceptions that have studied asymmetry (Pendyala et al., 1995; Goodwin, 1998; Dargay, 2001).”
Transportation and the environment. (2011, background): “Increasing income, as well as the growing participation of women in the labor force and the decrease in household size, acts to increase car ownership, which in turn contributes to increased personal mobility (23, 24).”
A multi-level analysis of sustainable mobility transitions: Niche development in the UK and Sweden (2008, background): “While demand for transport increases proportionally with income, there is statistical evidence that reduced income does not necessarily result in reduced demand for transport [91].”
Gendered key events in the life course: effects on changes in travel mode choice over time (2014, background): “…including the commencement of job training or university entry, entry into the labour market (Harms, 2007), change of job or education, income changes (Dargay, 2001), retirement (Ottmann, 2007); − residential biography, including residential moves and associated changes in the spatial context at…”
Modeling future vehicle sales and stock in China (2012, background): “It is well recognized that income is a primary driving force for the growth of private car ownership (Dargay, 2001).”
