TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Behaviour theory and soft transport policy measures JO - Transport policy A1 - Bamberg, Sebastian A1 - Fujii, Satoshi A1 - Friman, Margareta A1 - Gärling, Tommy SP - 228 EP - 235 VL - 18 IS - 1 N2 - The aim is to propose a theoretical grounding of soft transport policy measures that aim at promoting voluntary reduction of car use. A general conceptual framework is first presented to clarify how hard and soft transport policy measures impact on car-use reduction. Two different behavioural theories that have been used to account for car use and car-use reduction are then integrated in a self-regulation theory that identifies four stages of the process of voluntarily changing car use: setting a car-use reduction goal, forming a plan for achieving the goal, initiating and executing the plan, and evaluating the outcome of the plan execution. A number of techniques are described that facilitate the different stages of the process of voluntary car-use reduction and which should be used in personalized travel planning programs.
