Conclusions

A single model without a weekday–weekend difference dummy (analytical findings in relation to the significance of the land use effect can be applied both to weekday and weekend travel)

Troped et al. (2010) [27]

Density, land use balance, and street intersection density increase physical activity.

Forsyth et al. (2007) [28]

Housing density is positively associated with walking and physical activity.

Gim (2011) [9]

Compact land use facilitates automobile alternative travel.

A single model with a weekday–weekend difference dummy (it was tested and confirmed that the difference dummy has a significant effect on travel behavior)

Cervero and Duncan (2003) [29]

The weekend dummy positively affects walking and biking; land use diversity and design increase them.

Ogilvie et al. (2008) [30]

The weekend dummy works negatively on active travel and positively on physical activities; land use has a limited effect on them.

Two separate weekday and weekend models (it was found that different land use variables may be significant in the weekday and weekend models)

Lee et al. (2009) [4]

Residential density and rail proximity reduce the total travel time on weekdays, but not on weekends.

Lin and Yu (2011) [31]

Residential land use affects children’s leisure travel both on weekdays and weekends.

Witten et al. (2012) [32]

Neighborhood land use increases leisure-purpose physical activities on weekdays and weekends.
