Abstract:
An impactful solution for confronting critical environmental problems may be pursued within the context of e-carpooling services. Nevertheless, a crucial part in our intervention through the introduction of efficient carpooling systems is that of the conceptualization of user preferences and attributes. This study presents a comparison between two surveys focused on a respondent sample consisting mainly of members of a university community. Specifically, the first survey involved students and employees of a private academic institution (University of Deusto, Bilbao, Spain) while the second members of a public institution in (University of Mons, Hainaut, Belgium).
