It has been shown that the effect of nonresponse can be reduced by careful model building, with categorical trip generation models as an example. The same philosophy is extended to logit mode split models and exponential gravity models to show that the usual levels of nonresponse that one encounters in urban travel surveys have virtually no adverse effects on the parameter estimates of these models if the model has been specified correctly. Some simulation results are also presented to show the behavior of logit and exponential gravity model parameter estimates under conditions of nonresponse.
