| Research Abstract |
This research looked at "mass effects" within mobility decisions from various perspectives. Firstly, a main focus has been on modeling car ownership decisions of individuals and the influence of others in terms of "injunctive norms" as well as "descriptive norms". A survey among students in Indonesia as well as a second international survey was conducted among students from seven countries. The results illustrate the motivational differences among students in different countries. Secondly, another focus has been on modeling more generally asymmetric cost functions in decision making. This research has led to a publication titled "Dynamic Process Model of Mass Effects". The results illustrate potential population dynamics considering mass effects. Possibly the main achievement of this research has been to establish connections between network modeling and social psychology. The research has further led to some on-going research collaborations that promise further research outcomes.
