Abstract

The study of activites of urban people is a basic study for city planning, and activities are described by time and space. In this study the activities are classified into four groups, they are physiological activity, social activity, free activity, and movable activity. Movable activity makes connection of time and space, according to its moving time caused by the demand of convertion of activity fields. In this report I studied about the decision factor of activity time allocation. The one factor is independent of activities, and the other is dependent on them, that is from the inter relation of them. Here, the former factor is consist of three personal attributes, sex, age, and occupation, and the latter is consist of trade-off relations of each pair of activities. The data used in this study is from the activity investigation in Shizuoka city in 1971. The results are as follows ; 1. Physiological activity time is influenced strongly by age, not by sex. Social activity time is almost decided by occupation and age. 2. Social activity time and free activity time have the strongest trade-off relation. Physiological activity time and social activity time have secondary strong trade-off relation. Physiological activity time and free activity time are independent of each other. 3. Movable activity time has some influences on the other three activity times and is influenced by them.
