“…When the couple decides to own only one car (which is common in many European dense cities such as Paris, London or Stockholm), this induces a competition between spouses to use it. Picard, Dantan and de Palma (2018) show that taking into account such interactions within the family significantly improves the estimation of individual values of time.…”

“…Although the bargaining process that would normally lead to the choice of departure time among users with heterogeneous preferences certainly has important consequences (see e.g. (Picard, Dantan, and de Palma 2018) in the context of mode choice within couples), we leave it as a future research direction for a paper that would focus on carpooling itself (and not on priority schemes).…”

Several works published over the last two decades have shown for a stylized set-up with homogeneous users that metering-based priority (MBP) schemes may generate Pareto improving departure time adjustments similar to those induced by congestion pricing, but without any financial transaction. We investigate whether MBP (i) still generates significant savings and (ii) remains Pareto-improving, with various sources of heterogeneity (in schedule flexibility, desired arrival time, and capacity usage). We consider two types of schemes: one where the priority status is allocated randomly (R-MBP) and another (HOV-MBP), which only prioritizes users with small capacity usage (e.g., carpoolers). We find that the relative total cost savings of R-MBP decrease with heterogeneity in flexibility, but may increase with heterogeneity in desired arrival time. It fails however to be Pareto-improving, as nonprioritized users are almost systematically worse-off. HOV-MBP circumvents this issue by generating an ordering effect and a modal shift, which both contribute to a better distribution of benefits among users. Under favorable circumstances, they may even restore a Pareto improvement. Overall, MBP appears as a realistic way to alleviate congestion, scoring well both in terms of efficiency and social acceptability.

“…Household members' joint decisions concerning trips for escorting children to and from school were modeled by Ermagun and Levinson (2016) and Weiss and Habib (2018). Apart from these shortterm household decision problems, researchers also investigated household members' long-term collaborative decision-making on car ownership (Picard, Dantan, & de Palma, 2018;Zhang, Fujiwara, & Kuwano, 2007;Zhang, Kuwano, Lee, & Fujiwara, 2009) and residential location choices (Borgers & Timmermans, 1993;Chiappori, de Palma, Picard, & Inoa, 2012;Rivera & Tiglao, 2005;Timmermans, Borgers, van Dijk, & Oppewal, 1992).…”

Accompanying the rapid urban expansion and fast population growth is a progressive trend of residential relocation in developing countries, which necessitates a thorough understanding of households’ relocation decisions. Previous studies generally treated home relocation as an individual or unitary household decision, ignoring the interactive and collaborative decision-making mechanisms that household members may adopt when making group decisions. In view of this research gap, this study examines the feasibility of applying the egalitarian bargaining approach to simulating households’ group decisions concerning residential relocation and further compares its performance with the Nash bargaining and the conventional utilitarian approach. Moreover, the study experiments with the possibility of accommodating three possible group decision-making mechanisms using the latent class modeling framework. The proposed modeling approaches are applied to an empirical case study in Beijing. Results show that models based on the egalitarian and Nash bargaining principles have better model fits than the utilitarian principle, suggesting the importance of considering egalitarianism when modeling household members’ collaborative choice on residential relocation. Moreover, the model based on Nash bargaining has the best model fit, indicating that instead of merely seeking egalitarianism or utilitarianism, household members are more likely to strike a balance between fairness and efficiency.
