In this paper face-to-face versus and web-based survey methods of collecting transit passenger perception data are compared using two transit customer satisfaction survey tools. Multivariate statistical analyses are applied to determine the differences between the two surveys. Some differences in behavior and attitudes of web survey respondents compared to those from a face-to-face survey are found. The results can help transit agencies manage their bus services to improve passenger satisfaction and service quality.
Nello studio è effettuato un confronto tra indagini face-to-face e indagini online progettate per raccogliere dati relativi alle percezioni degli utenti dei trasporti collettivi. Le differenze tra le due metodologie di indagine sono investigate tramite analisi di statistica multivariata applicate a dati sperimentali rilevati su due campioni di utenti. Dai risultati emergono rilevanti differenze nei comportamenti e nelle attitudini dei due campioni statistici.

Abstract
In this paper face-to-face versus and web-based survey methods of collecting transit passenger perception data are compared using two transit customer satisfaction survey tools. Multivariate statistical analyses are applied to determine the differences between the two surveys. Some differences in behavior and attitudes of web survey respondents compared to those from a face-to-face survey are found. The results can help transit agencies manage their bus services to improve passenger satisfaction and service quality.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
