abstract: "<p>This dataset corresponds to the study titled Negotiating the bicycle path: A study of moped user stereotypes and behaviours in the Netherlands’, authored by Clara Glachant and Frauke Behrendt and published in the journal <em>Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour</em>. The question guiding the study is: How can a focus on moped user stereotypes help us unpack the spatial complexities of a transition toward more micromobility in the Netherlands? Drawing on mobility studies and social identity theory, this paper explores the stereotypes of moped users and their behaviours to understand the spatial complexities of a shift towards more micromobility in the Netherlands. By analysing interviews with moped users and how users are discussed in the press, the paper empirically maps stereotypes of the users of different mopeds i.e. (1) fuel-based and privately owned, (2) electric and privately owned, and (3) electric and rental, and their behaviour on the bicycle path. Our study shows how debates tend to focus on the behaviours of moped users and their interactions with cyclists on shared bicycle paths while the spatial domination of automobility remains unchallenged. Beyond the Dutch case, our article thus also exemplifies how conflict between different micromobilities often serves as a distraction from the real issue: the need to radically reduce automobility and systematically facilitate micromobility – in order to enable the urgently needed transition to low-carbon mobility. The dataset contains the list of documents analysed as research material for this study collected through the database Nexus Uni, the list of interviewees who took part in the study and the interview guide. </p>"
