Summary/Abstract: Today, the sharing economy is a widely discussed topic where people ask themselves what it is, how it works, and what it brings to the society. It occurs in many social spheres; this research paper focuses on the sharing economy in the field of transport. The sharing economy is a phenomenon of the 21st century; the fact that it is a very current topic is also evidenced by the amount of related research published in the databases. This paper aims to apply the BlandAltman model, commonly used in medicine, to the sharing economy. Its aim is to point out the functionality and possibilities of using non-traditional approaches in various areas of study. The introduction describes the sharing economy and the latest publications dealing with it in the field of transport, with a focus on Uber.

In the results section, we offer the results of the application of the Bland-Altman model on the data obtained from 110 Uber rides in Prague. In addition to this method, regression analysis was also applied. The discussion and conclusion section summarizes the results and mentions essential publications in the field.
