Cover Story: Exploring passengers’ consumption behavior is an important issue for positioning commercial facilities in train stations, but research on high-speed rail stations is rare. This study mixed three MADM methods, i.e., DEMATEL, DANP, and modified VIKOR, to construct a hybrid MADM model to explore the complex influential relationships among dimensions/criteria of determinants as well as investigate passengers’ perception from five HSR stations in Taiwan. The results of DEMATEL and DANP reveal that station attributes and consumption environment attributes affect product attributes. In terms of criteria, time pressure, store location, product diversity, and service convenience are as critical as “cause” characteristics. The result of modified VIKOR suggested that time pressure should be the priority improvement strategy. View this paper
