Abstract
This paper conducted a comparison study of mode shift behavior based on computer-aided SP surveys trying to distinguish the differences in conceptions of preference and inertia. The results show that same respondents have remarkably different choice behavior in mode shift context and another mode choice scenarios. The results indicate that there exists obvious inertia in mode shift from car to public transit besides preference for car. The inertia in mode shift should be modeled as an inherently independent component in utility function rather than interpreted as the effects of past travel experience on mode preference. It is found that same respondents have different values of travel time in different mode choice contexts. The results are beneficial for accurate modeling of inertia in mode shift behaviors.
