a Logit model: ZINB models evaluate the correlates of the odds of non-participation in passive transport to work or to other destinations.

b Negative binomial model: simultaneously, among participants who did use passive transport to work or to other destinations, ZINB models evaluate the correlates of weekly minutes passive transport use to work or to other destinations. Negative binomial model parameters represent the proportional increase in minutes/week passive transport use to work or to other destinations with a one-unit increase in the predictor. The model for commuting was adjusted for distance to work.
