Multipurpose shopping behaviour at planned suburban shopping centres: a space-time analysis

Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
A study of multipurpose shopping at a range of planned suburban shopping centres in Sydney during 1988/89 endeavour to relate several hypotheses to results from a space-time differential consumer-trip model. The number of consumers is shown to form a substantial quadratic relationship with centre scale. The model predicts positive and negative states of MPS. Distinctly different socioeconomic groups can have in common a MPS strategy independent of centre scale. They are using this strategy as a mechanism to minimise the total effort in the shopping cycle.
