Study on Drivers' Refueling Behaviors Based on SEM Model
To overcome the environmental and energy crisis, the promotion of alternative fuel vehicles is necessary. However, the lack of alternative fuel refueling stations becomes an obstacle. This paper aims to find out the factors that influence drivers' refueling behaviors. A survey was performed in Nanjing to evaluate the drivers' various attributions through a distribution of questionnaires to 150 drivers. Then, the authors established the Structural Equation Model (SEM) using the Statistical Product, Service Solutions software (SPSS) and the Analysis of Moment Structures software (AMOS). The results showed that the refueling behavior depends on the attitude towards the refueling behavior, perceived behavioral control and traveling behavior.
