这项研究旨在应用一种旅程制图方法,以确定每个旅行阶段残疾人(PWD)的旅行考虑因素和障碍,从考虑旅行到到达目的地,他们目前的交通方式,目的是理解和避免向自动驾驶系统过渡期间的“痛点”。二十名残疾人,包括那些有身体,视觉,听觉,认知,和身体/视觉障碍相结合,参加了半结构化的一对一面试。描述性统计数据用于人口统计信息,采用定性内容分析对转录访谈进行分析,提取主题。主题由所使用的运输方式进一步组织。考虑和计划旅行的前四个主题是第三方援助可用性(私家车,公共交通,和辅助运输),寻找无障碍或合适的停车位(私家车),进入服务位置(公共交通和辅助运输),和交通时间表(公共交通和辅助运输)。定位的四大旅行障碍,进入,骑马,离开交通工具和到达目的地的是车辆进出(私人车辆和公共交通工具),关注轮椅安全(公共交通和辅助运输),需要第三方援助(私家车和公共交通),和可访问的服务地点(公共交通)。研究表明,为了减轻残疾人士的旅行考虑和障碍,应同时解决特定车辆的障碍和基础设施问题。我们预计这些发现将为自动驾驶汽车的设计和开发提供见解。更好地满足残疾人的需求。
This study aimed to apply a journey mapping methodology to identify travel considerations and barriers for people with disabilities (PWDs) at each travel stage, from considering a trip through to arriving at the destination for their current modes of transportation, with the objective of understanding and avoiding \"pain points\" during a transition to autonomous driving systems. Twenty PWDs, including those with physical, visual, aural, cognitive, and combined physical/visual impairments, participated in a semistructured one-on-one interview. Descriptive statistics were used for demographic information, and qualitative content analysis was used to analyze the transcribed interviews and extract themes. Themes were further organized by the modes of transportation used. The top four themes in considering and planning a trip were third-party assistance availability (private vehicle, public transportation, and paratransit), finding an accessible or suitable parking space (private vehicle), access to a service location (public transportation and paratransit), and transportation schedules (public transportation and paratransit). The top four travel barriers to locating, entering, riding, and exiting transportation and arriving at the destination were vehicle ingress/egress (private vehicle and public transportation), concerns about wheelchair securement (public transportation and paratransit), requiring third-party assistance (private vehicle and public transportation), and accessibility to service locations (public transportation). The study suggests that to mitigate travel considerations and barriers for PWDs, vehicle-specific barriers and infrastructure issues should be addressed simultaneously. We anticipate that the findings will provide insights into the design and development of autonomous vehicles, to better accommodate the needs of PWDs.
