The recent Covid-19 pandemic and many of the states’ orders to stay-at-home has significantly influenced the way people travel, use public transit, and do their routine physical activities nationwide. We, a group of researchers at the National Center for Smart Growth, University of Maryland, are conducting a research titled “Investigation of behavioral changes during the Covid-19 pandemic” to investigate the influence of the pandemic and the statewide orders on the way people travel to meet their essential needs, do their routine daily activities, and get to work—if employed in an essential service sector. Please help us achieve this goal by filling out this survey and it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time. Please note that:
- The survey is completely anonymous and will remain so throughout the entire survey and analysis process
- The data will be stored in a secure and password protected computer on the University of Maryland campus and will only be accessible by the principal investigator and a few other researchers working on the project.
- While taking the survey, you may skip any question they do not wish to answer.
