Abstract

Using examples of completed Austrian surveys, the gender analysis shows that not only the interpretations of the data, but also the questionnaires reveal bias and simplifications, which veil crucial aspects in the behaviour concerning mobility, particularly the behaviour of caregivers in their everyday lives. Using the common travel purposes the paper stresses this argument and proposes gender-sensitive approaches. The paper is based on the author's doctoral thesis (2004-06) as well as the practical work experience as a researcher at B-NK Consultancy for Sustainable Competence (B-NK GmbH), in Vienna. This paper can be understood as an example on how to implement gender and diversity aspects into applied mobility research.
