Abstract

The time individuals spent walking a standard distance on a sidewalk was unobtrusively observed under 2 conditions. In a crowded condition the distribution of walking speeds was skewed towards fast speeds. In an uncrowded condition the distribution of walking speeds was skewed towards slow speeds. Findings are generalized to other settings where user density and environment capacity interact.
