Gender Dimensions in Trip Generation: A Systematic Literature Review
摘要
Gender disparities in trip generation remain a critical issue in urban transportation planning, influencing mobility patterns, accessibility, and equity. This systematic literature review, conducted using PRISMA guidelines, finally gathers findings from 16 peer-reviewed studies to examine the factors contributing to gender differences in trip-making behavior. The literature search, conducted across major databases such as Scopus, Google Scholar, and TRID, identified studies focusing on trip generation disparities based on sociodemographic characteristics, travel behavior preferences, and policy implications. This review looked at 16 studies on gender and trip generation. Most studies came from India (31%), followed by Canada (13%), and countries like the USA, Sweden, and Japan (6% each). Research on this topic has been taken from 2010 to 2024, with the most studies published in 2019. The main factors affecting travel include age, income, occupation, trip patterns, vehicle ownership, and safety concerns. The findings highlight the need for better transport planning that considers the different travel needs of men and women. In the future, more research can be done using larger and newer data, especially from underrepresented regions like smaller cities in developing countries, where gender differences in trip generation have not been studied much.
