Abstract: The application of the three-step coding of grounded theory is used to analyse the travel constraints and management strategies of 24 Korean interviewees aged 40 and over. These interviewees are categorized into travellers and non-travellers. Travellers include ‘constraint haves’ and ‘constraint have-nots’, while non-travellers are ‘constraint haves with travel desire’ or ‘constraint haves without travel desire’. Twenty-one participants had constraints, and 20 out of 21 chose not to travel any more, mainly owing to time and money factors.

Keywords: travel constraints; constraint negotiation/management strategies; equal travel opportunities; grounded theory coding (search for similar items in EconPapers)
