Demand in Space and Multipurpose Shopping: A Theoretical Approach

“…This paper is devoted to the study of spatial demand in the case where consumers are allowed to practice multipurpose shopping. The determinant role of that kind of shopping behavior in the setting up of demand as well as in the location of shopping opportunities was recognized by Christaller (1966, p. 50) and Losch (1954, p. 76) and is confirmed by empirically supported studies (Wheeler 1972;Hensher 1976;Bentley, Bruce, and Jones 1977;Hanson 1980aHanson , 1980b. However, the first attempts to integrate the multipurpose shopping practice in spatial demand theory are quite recent (Papageorgiou and Brummell975;Lentnek, Hanvitz, and Narula 1981;Eaton and Lipsey 1982;Stahl 1982;Narula, Harwitz, and Lentnek 1983;Mulligan 1983Mulligan , 1984.…”

Toward Conceptualizing Trip‐Chaining Behavior: A Review

“…Most exploratory studies rely on classical statistical tools (e.g., regression, correlation, factor and cluster analyses) in order to understand spatial behavior. They are frequently based on travel diaries kept by individuals during a variable time period (Chapin 1974;Cullen and Godson 1975;Bentley et al 1977;Clarke et al 1981;Hanson 1980a;O'Kelly and Miller 1984). Unfortunately, it is difficult to achieve consistent and reliable results on the composition and factors of trip chains because of the great diversity of designs in the studies (Jones 1978;Hanson 1979;Burnett and Hanson 1982).…”

“…Many elementary descriptive tools such as tables of frequencies, diagrams, and schematic representations give precise empirical evidence of trip-chaining behavior (Lathrop 1970;Horton and Hultquist 1971;Davies 1973;Cullen and Godson 1975;Bentley et al 1977;Oster 1978;Burnett and Hanson 1979;O'Kelly and Miller 1984). They describe the structure of complex journeys and emphasize their various dimensions (e.g., sequence, duration, nature, and location of stops).…”
