In our paper Social barriers and opportunities for transition towards sustainable mobility: The role of selected beliefs and attitudes in Central-Eastern Europe we show that personality traits such as the willingness to limit one’s comfort for the common good and the belief that services provided on the private market are of better quality than public services are important for transport behavior. Pro-market beliefs are more often associated with private car and parking space ownership, while pro-social attitudes are more often associated with the use of transport services, especially public transport. Both of these traits are a consequence of exposure to communist institutions.
