“…In recent years, Dutch (Aarts, Verplanken, & Knippenberg, 1998;Verplanken, Aarts, Knippenberg, & Knippenberg, 1994;Verplanken, Aarts, Knippenberg, & Moonen, 1998) and Swedish (Gärling, Boe, & Fujii, 2001) researchers, in particular, have made substantial advances in demonstrating the importance of habits for the choice of modes of transportation. Consistent with these findings a recent Danish study found that past behaviour is a stronger predictor of the use of public transportation than the attitude towards using public transportation, public transportation's ability to cover the individual's transport needs, and perceived social pressure to use public transportation (Thøgersen, 2001).…”
