Travel demand analysis is intrinsically spatial; yet spatial analysis considerations are seldom recognized and accommodated in travel modeling. The objective of this paper is to identify the spatial issues that need to be recognized in demand modeling, and to propose a multi-level, mixed logit, formulation to address these spatial issues in the context of activity stop generation. The multi-lev...

We examine the determinants of satisfactory homework performance among Principles of Macroeconomics students. Using OLS, we find that the student’s GPA, the time spent studying and the perceived usefulness of homework assignments in preparing for exams favor improved homework performance. In a LOGIT analysis, we discover the probability of making an ‘A’ is increased with a greater weight grante...

Capture-recapture methods are used to estimate the incidence of a disease, using a multiple-source registry. Usually, log-linear methods are used to estimate population size, assuming that not all sources of notification are dependent. Where there are categorical covariates, a stratified analysis can be performed. The multinomial logit model has occasionally been used. In this paper, the author...
