“…As households with children are expected to be more time-pressured, it is likely that such households are more inclined to shop online. Some support for this was found by Hiselius et al who observed a higher share of online shoppers among families with children under 10 years of age (40). Farag et al discerned that singles shop less often online than other household types (20).…”

Accessibility or Innovation? Store Shopping Trips versus Online Shopping

The increasing penetration of online shopping will have major effects on physical stores. And the question is: In which areas will consumers replace most physical shopping with online shopping? Two apparently competing hypotheses were tested: the diffusion of innovation hypothesis, suggesting openness to new technologies; and the efficiency hypothesis, suggesting accessibility gains. Whether the innovation hypothesis has lost its importance in favor of the efficiency hypothesis was also questioned. The study area was a polycentric urban area in the Netherlands. We distinguished between books, clothes, and groceries. It was assumed that shoppers' decisions to buy a particular good online or not, and the share of online shopping relative to in-store shopping for this good, were basically driven either by shoppers' willingness to adopt the new technology of e-shopping or by shoppers' accessibility to shops. Support was found for both hypotheses, although the impact of shopping seemed limited and varied between different types of goods. In the end, e-shopping behavior remains primarily shaped by households who are open to new technologies, and to a limited extent by efficiency considerations.

“…By contrast, Farag, Schwanen, and Dijst (2005) found that e-shopping complements store shopping in the Netherlands. Hiselius, Rosqvist, and Adell (2015) found that shopping online might have a neutral effect on store shopping trips in Sweden. Cao (2012) and Zhai et al (2016) conclude that the effect of online shopping on store shopping is complicated because the internet facilitates a hybrid shopping process.…”

The rise of e-shopping significantly changes the way that people shop. Transportation planners have a keen interest in the substitution of e-shopping for store shopping and its impact on transportation systems. The literature offers mixed findings on the relationship between online and store shopping. Few studies have explored this relationship in China where e-shopping has proliferated and retail land use and transportation systems have evolved. Using data gathered from adult internet users in Nanjing, this paper applies structural equation modelling to investigate the relationships among store shopping, online shopping, and online searching. The results show that online and store shopping have a positive association, however, the effect is from the latter to the former. Online searching positively influences both online and store shopping. These results imply that e-shopping as an information channel promotes store shopping.

“…Freathy and Calderwood (2013) and Calderwood and Freathy (2014) find both complementary and substitution effects, but they also state that online shopping has a limited impact on shopping travel in the Scottish Isles. Hiselius, Rosqvist et al (2015) also conclude that there are few differences in trip frequency and travel distance between frequent online shoppers and other shoppers. Although complementarity seems to dominate the literature, the impact of the Internet on shopping is more complex than it appears.…”

After a long period of system deployment of the auto-highway system, and several decades of maturity of that system, the surface transportation sector is facing a large number of technological shifts that could change whether and how people travel. While nascent, their prospects are potentially significant. This research proposed to explore these technologies-ascertain their potential market, consider their interactions, understand what that might do to travel demands, and address how planning and forecasting should respond. This research developed a series of white papers: high-level policy briefs based on our analysis of each technology, its direction, and its implications for Minnesota. This work extends and complements the MnDOT 50 year vision expressed in Minnesota GO. It also builds on the ideas developed in the NCHRP 750 project: Strategic Issues Facing Transportation. The timeframe on these technologies varies, and the authors looked at deployment paths over time rather than simple snapshots in time. 17. Document Analysis/Descriptors 18.
