A new approach to calculate the value of leisure is developed and applied. This is derived from a consumer behaviour model that includes goods and activities. A system of time assignment equations is explicitly obtained from which the values of both leisure and work can be analytically...

This paper examines the use and travel impacts of two forms of information and communication technologies (ICTs): mobile telephones and computers. The travel impacts are examined in the context of participation in out-of-home non-maintenance shopping activities over a multiweek period through...
