Abstract This paper describes parts of a study of travel by urban residents on seven consecutive days. The conceptual structure of the research understands travel as a demand derived by a dynamic process of individuals and households allocating their budgets to activities within the framework posed by societal regimens. Societal rules have a time dimension which is repetitive with a weekly cycle. Thus, distinctive basic patterns of weekly mobility are expected for segments of the society and differences in the obligation to adhere to those basic patterns. The data used for testing these hypotheses is described and the issue of increasing reporting bias over the diary period is addressed. Sixteen life cycle groups of persons are selected here for the presentation of some findings. The profiles of trip rates for the groups over the seven days of the week (estimated with analysis of covariance) and the decomposition of the variances of trip rates into interindividual, intraindividual and systematic parts (by repeated measurement analysis) are reported. Characteristic differences in the volume of mobility, the shape of profiles and the variance components reflect different patterns of tripmaking for segments of the population over the week. It is concluded that even for well-defined person categories, interpersonal variety of mobility behavior is large but has to be seen in relation to even greater intrapersonal variability. Both components can best be understood within the period of one week which individuals use to organize their mobility.
