    A Study on the Travel Patterns of Physically Disabled People
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011) Var, Turgut; Yesiltas, Mehmet; Yayli, Ali; Ozturk, Yuksel
    The main objective of this paper is to highlight the travel patterns and experiences of people with a physical disability. To understand better the travel needs of people with a physical disability, it is useful to examine how travel patterns differ across demographic variables. The method chosen for the empirical data collection was a self-completed web-based questionnaire, which was answered by a total of 596 physically disabled people. The data obtained were evaluated using frequency, percentage, arithmetic average, t-test, chi-square and factor analysis. The research findings reveal that people with physical disability in different demographics groups differ in their travel patterns.
