主讲内容简介

        Urban and transport policies aim at improving people’s quality of life (QOL). Various life choices (or consumption in life) affect the QOL, which has been investigated with respect to various life domains, such as residence, neighborhood, health, education, work, family life, recreation, leisure and tourism, finance, and travel behavior. The success or failure of urban and transport policies heavily depend on the understanding of people’s life choices. The life-oriented approach argues that people’s life choices in various domains are interdependent. Interdependencies between life choices support cross-sectoral urban and transport policy decisions. To the speaker’s knowledge, this is the first theoretical approach in literature to capture various life choices within a unified framework. This lecture will present empirical evidence about cross-domain interdependencies, summarize the current research progress, and discusses future research challenges, from a perspective of integrated urban and transportation modeling.
