전국 장래 승용차 보유대수 추정에 관한 연구

Understanding the future level of car ownership is essential in order to formulate various transportation policies. Despite its importance, however, a revies of literature indicates that previous studies treated car ownership as a linear function of income, GNP, degree of urbanization and etc. more detaild and accurate models of car ownership should be possible if information on major variables determining car ownership can be gathered. In this paper, three approaches have been chosen to develop mathematical models to predict future increase in car ownership in Korea. The three methords developed are : income distribution methords ; multiple regression models ; forecasting curves.
