Background: Urban sprawl adversely effects the sustainability of urban environments by promoting private vehicle use, decreasing viability active/public transport, and increasing cost public service provision. Autonomous vehicles could change desirability different residential locations due to resulting changes design decreased value travel time. Methods: Adult Australians (n = 1078) completed an online survey that included a description future where autonomous are widely available. The...
Governments will have a key role in establishing the policy environment needed to optimise social outcomes associated with evolution of autonomous vehicles (AVs). However, little is known about extent which general public would support diverse range policies that could be implemented across human transport and product delivery AV applications. To address this deficit, aim present study was explore for policies. In total, 1078 adult Australians completed an online survey assessed...
Food deliveries to consumers using autonomous vehicles are forecast become commonplace in Australia and globally. The aims of this study were (i) explore the anticipated nature AV food delivery services (ii) identify available policy options optimise positive outcomes minimise any negative consequences for health well-being. In total, 36 interviews conducted with 40 expert stakeholders across a range relevant sectors including transport, urban planning, telecommunications. Interviewees...
(1) Background: The emergence of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is likely to have substantial implications for walking behaviours due the availability new transport options and altered physical environments within cities. aim this exploratory study was identify AV-related factors that could affect at population level strategies ameliorate any negative effects. (2) Methods: A total 46 Australian expert stakeholders were interviewed about their perceptions potential impacts AVs on behaviours....
Abstract Introduction The emergence of autonomous vehicles (AV) heralds new methods alcohol delivery that are likely to have substantial implications for home drinking. aim this study was explore the factors potential hasten or restrict widescale increases in availability resulting from AVs. Methods Thirty‐six interviews were conducted with 44 stakeholders across diverse sectors. Interviewees discussed their perceptions how AVs will evolve and access. interview transcripts analysed develop a...
Drone delivery services are set to increase unhealthy food and alcohol accessibility. The aim of this study was evaluate public receptiveness various options for regulating drone beverage deliveries identify sociodemographic differences in receptiveness.
(1) Background: The automation of transport systems is well underway; however, it unclear how this will affect people’s mobility choices. Changes in these choices have implications for health and the sustainability efficiency systems, making important to understand advent autonomous vehicles might behaviors. aim present study was address knowledge gap Australian context. (2) Methods: Respondents reported their demographic information, current behaviors, perceived importance transport-related...
Rapid technological change will affect how people access harmful products. For example, automated delivery services are forecast to provide fast and affordable product options for those purchasing alcohol. Information about the potential impacts of such innovations on alcohol purchase consumption behaviors is lacking. The aim this study was explore consumers may respond future scenarios where available via a range autonomous options.In two-stage process, qualitative individual interviews (n...
Technological innovations in the online food delivery sector include use of autonomous vehicles. The aim present study was to investigate consumers' intentions these services once they are widely available and their motivations for using them access unhealthy food.
Innovations in food home delivery systems have seen rapid growth the consumption of prepared outside home. Such is often higher negative nutrients than home-prepared food. Technological advancements transport sector are set to amplify availability services via introduction autonomous (driverless) vehicles. Very little known about how consumers likely react this change, and relevant regulatory frameworks lacking. To address evidence gap inform policy emerging domain, aim present study was...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> The increasing prevalence of paediatric obesity presents a major challenge for healthcare services. In England, Complications Excess Weight (CEW) clinics provide specialist multidisciplinary care children presenting with co-morbidities severe obesity. Positive treatment outcomes require the young person and their family to make behavioural changes improve child’s health. However, there are many barriers health behaviour change, particularly adolescents....
