(DST: shortest travel time; DST5: average of 5 shortest travel time; DES: density; SAU: spatial accessibility index from the model without weighting parameter; SAC: spatial accessibility index from the model with continuous weighting parameter; SA3Q: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 3 time zones and quick decay weighting; SA3S: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 3 time zones and slow decay weighting; SA6Q: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 6 time zones and quick decay weighting; SA6S: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 6 time zones and slow decay weighting.); all coefficients are statistically significant.
