Modeling travelers’ mode choice behavior is an important component of travel demand studies. In an effort to account for day-to-day dynamics of travelers’ mode choice behavior, the current study develops a dynamic random effects logit model to endogenously incorporate the mode chosen for a day into the utility function of the mode chosen for the following day. A static multinomial logit model is also estimated to examine the performance of the dynamic model. Per the results, the dynamic random effects model outperforms the static model in relation to predictive power. According to the accuracy indices, the dynamic random effects model offers the predictive power of 60.0% for members of car-deficient households, whereas the static model is limited to 43.1%. Also, comparison of F1-scores indicates that the predictive power of the dynamic random effects model with respect to active travels is 47.1% whereas that …
