abstract="This study introduces the concept of &quot;travel duration tolerance&quot; to describe the phenomenon that people's emotional well-being may worsen after traveling for a certain duration. Using 9,383 trips made by 353 residents of the Minneapolis-St. Paul Metropolitan Area between October 2016 and October 2017, we develop a set of panel survival analyses for five emotional well-being measures, including one positive (happiness) and four negatives (tiredness, stress, sadness, and pain) emotions. <br><br>FINDINGS indicate that positive emotion is more sensitive to trip duration than negative emotions. Among trip-level factors, the sensitivity of emotional well-being during a trip is relatively weak when traveling by bike, bus, and rail; conducting discretionary trip purposes; traveling with spouse, family, children, and friends; conducting secondary activities while traveling; and being satisfied with the travel environment. Among personal-level factors, the sensitivity of emotional well-being during a trip is relatively strong for women and African Americans.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
