A brief description of the method(s) used to gather data about student commuting, including the timeframe for when the analysis was conducted and how a representative sample was reached, if applicable:
University-wide transportation survey conducted in 2016 by Temple University Institute for Survey Research:
The 2016 Temple University Transportation Survey was launched on March 22, 2016 and was completed on April 18, 2016, which was approximately a four-week survey period. Of the 8,396 Temple University students, faculty, and staff randomly sampled with a stratified design, 2,250 submitted a survey. Of the 2,250 submitted, 2,088 (93%) were sufficiently completed to include in this report. An additional 162 surveys were partially completed and excluded from the results. Excluding those that were partially completed, surveys yielded a 24.9% overall response rate, up from both an 18.9% overall response rate in 2013, and 20.1% in 2010. Post-stratification weights were calculated to adjust for non-response bias. Weighted results reflect the universe estimates of Temple students, faculty and staff proportionally.
