        abstract = {The outbreak of COVID-19 in 2019 affected various countries worldwide, forcing national, provincial, and local governments to impose widespread travel restrictions in the interest of public health. Men, women, and children have been mostly confined to their homes for several months due to the imposed travel restrictions. As a result, people had to adapt to alternative living/working in restricted situations. A prolonged period of confinement to one's home seemed to impact people's behaviour and affective well-being. Hence, this study is particularly interested in analysing changes in socialising trips and discretionary trips during the COVID-19 pandemic on affective well-being. An online survey was conducted in Malaysia (N = 438) to seek the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on travel behaviour activity and as well as to affective well-being. By using the Malaysia 2021 dataset, this study analyses the effects of changes in socialising, discretionary trips, and activities on affective well-being. The bivariate and multivariate analysis has been used to determine the relationship between variables. From the findings, the trip that has the most significant impact on affective well-being is the trip to dining on the weekdays during the PKPP phase while for other trips the result is varied. It is crucial to understand the relationship between these variables as it could help with predicting future human travel behaviour. {\^A}{\copyright} 2024, Institute of Technology PETRONAS Sdn Bhd.},
