Attitudes and preferences in the relationship between travel behaviour and residential location choice. In this paper, it is assumed that travel behaviour is not only determined by sociodemographics and the spatial context, but also by individual desires. Do people select themselves in neighbourhoods that fit with their preferences and underlying attitudes, or are they constrained by the spatial context? As a start of an empirical study, this paper defines the concepts and relates this to some theoretical frameworks. Moreover, a number of empirical studies will be reviewed. Insight in individual underlying driving forces can contribute to the development of residential environments which are suited to residential and travel preferences. (Author/publisher)
