Travel behavior analysis is a basic research to ensure reasonable, efficient and orderly urban transportation planning. In order to examine influences of household/individual socio-demographics on household trip-chaining, structural equation model (SEM) is applied in this study to model travel behavior of nuclear household. Data is from the activity-travel survey conducted in Suzhou, China, in 2009. Household/individual socio-demographics are employed as exogenous in SEM. Endogenous variables are nuclear households' trip-chaining characteristics. Model estimation results suggest that household/individual socio-demographics have significant effects on household trip-chaining generations. Relatively, male heads and female heads have obvious influence on different aspect of travel behaviors. In addition, trip-chaining characteristics are related to each other and substitution and complementation exist among various trip chains. The research may contribute to the further study of the establishment of household-level travel demand model.
