Stalking the Urban Pedestrian: A Comparison of Questionnaire and Tracking Methodologies for Behavioural Mapping in Large-Scale Environments

This article compares two different methods of mapping pedestrian behaviour, questionnaires and observations. The author argues while each method has its advantages they can also be flawed: questionnaire can be inaccurate and observation methods can be time consuming. This research is important in understanding problems that we may encounter while observing pedestrians and ways of addressing these issues.

Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
