Mobilitaet in Deutschland. KONTIV 2002: Methodenstudie mit experimentellem Design zur Vorbereitung der Erhebung / Pilot study for the survey "Mobility in Germany"

Die neue Erhebung zum Personenverkehr "Mobilitaet in Deutschland" (KONTIV 2002) knuepft in ihren Kernelementen an die bisherigen KONTIV-Erhebungen der Jahre 1976, 1982 und 1989 an. Grundlegende Entscheidungen bezueglich der Methode, der Inhalte und der Durchfuehrung der Erhebung wurden auf Basis der Ergebnisse einer vorgelagerten Methodenstudie getroffen. Der Beitrag zeigt die Stellung der KONTIV 2002 im Kontext weiterer Erhebungen und stellt den Aufbau und die Ergebnisse der Methodenstudie dar. ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH: Currently several projects on behalf of the Federal Department of Transport, Building and Housing (DOT) are being implemented to improve the availability of data describing the transportation sector. The survey MOBILITY IN GERMANY measures the day-to-day travel behaviour of the German population, similar National Travel Surveys (NTS), then entitled "KONTIV", were carried out in 1976, 1982 and 1989. The data compiled in the course of this survey will be used both as a basis for transport planning in Germany and for scientific research on daily mobility. As there has been no NTS in Germany for more than a decade and none after the reunification of Germany and because methodological developments in survey design have taken place it was decided to explore different options for the next NTS with a pilot study. The DIW Berlin and infas-Institut fuer angewandte Sozialwissenschaft Bonn have been assigned by the Federal DOT to carry out this methodological study. In this pilot study innovative methodological approaches to transportation survey design are examined and experiences with NTS in other countries are reviewed. The empirical part of the study evaluated different combinations of design-elements by testing the instruments and the implementation in a sample of 2400 households in the early summer of 2001. Based on the empirical results of the pilot study, the study team and the advisory board decided on the design of the "Mobility in Germany" survey, which is carried out since December 2001. The design of this NTS will be described in a future article. (A)
