Abstract:In summer 2007, researchers evaluated the Rossmoor Senior Adult Community transit training through a "before-and-after" training survey. Surveys also were administered to participants who had taken the training over the past two years to identify any long-term changes (longitudinal). Results of the before-and-after survey revealed a positive shift in participant comfort levels with public transit and in finding transit information. More than 85% planned to take public transit more frequently. Longitudinal survey results revealed a significant decrease in private auto use after training. Both survey results suggest that training may have an impact on transit attitudes and a longer-term impact on travel behavior.
