Stephen Vaughn, CTS Fellow, will present a seminar entitled, "Healthy City Planning: The Role of Social Identity" on Monday, July 26, 2010 at 4:00 p.m. in Room 1000 SEO. Economics and Identity Authors: George A. Akerlof and Rachel E. Kranton Source: The Quarterly Journal of Economics, Vol. 115, No. 3 (Aug., 2000), pp. 715-753 Published by: The MIT Press url: http://www.jstor.org/stable/2586894 Bicycling for Transportation and Health: The Role of Infrastructure Author: Jennifer Dill, Nohad A Toulan School of Urban Studies and Planning, Portland State University, Portland, OR Source: Journal of Public Health Policy, 2009, 30, S95-S110 2009 Palgrave Macmillan 0197-5897/09 www.palgrave-journals.com/jphp/ Abstract: As it pertains to health and non-motorized transportation, most research focuses on the built environment in the hopes of attracting new travelers as well as improving the individual health and overall safety of its current users. It is generally accepted that network continuity of bike paths and lanes are important factors in addressing the obesity epidemic in the United States, however there are studies that show the contrary. While GPS studies assist in attempting to understand the movements of pedestrians and bicyclists, social identity may have a more profound effect upon the decision to utilize these modes. This presentation will examine the potential role of social identity in the decision to utilize non-motorized transportation as well as identify current planning technologies and policies that may benefit from the acknowledgement of this theory as a determinant of an individuals health. Biography: Stephen Vaughn is a 3rd year PhD student in the Department of Urban Planning and Policy at the University of Illinois-Chicago. His research interests include various aspects of non-motorized transportation planning: planning for healthy cities, the application of technologies to non-motorized transportation, as well as the effects of social identity upon individual health. |
