Composite Valuation of Immaterial Damage in Flooding: Value of Statistical Life, Value of Statistical Evacuation and Value of Statistical Injury

Bockarjova, Marija; Rietveld, Piet; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2012

This paper enriches existing valuation literature in a number of ways by presenting context-specific estimates of immaterial damage. First, it offers an estimation of value of statistical life (VOSL) in the context of a natural hazard (flooding). Next, as one of the contributions, alongside with...

Scale, Scope and Cognition: Context Analysis of Multiple Stated Choice Experiments on the Values of Life and Limb

Bockarjova, Marija; Rietveld, Piet; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2012

choice experiments. The main interest of this paper is VOSL sensitivity to the valuation of correlated risks (scope effect …). Besides, we explore the role of cognition on the stability of valuation across choice experiments using age and education. We … pool data from multiple choice experiments and apply nested and mixed logit models in our analysis. We confirm …

Predicting Travel Time Variability for Cost-Benefit Analysis

Peer, Stefanie; Koopmans, Carl; Verhoef, Erik T. - 2010

Unreliable travel times cause substantial costs to travelers. Nevertheless, they are not taken into account in many cost-benefit-analyses (CBA), or only in very rough ways. This paper aims at providing simple rules on how variability can be predicted, based on travel time data from Dutch...

Long-Run vs. Short-Run Perspectives on Consumer Scheduling : Evidence from a Revealed-Preference Experiment Among Peak-Hour Road Commuters

Peer, Stefanie - 2011

Theoretical and empirical studies of consumer scheduling behavior in commuting, and the associated valuation of time and schedule delays usually ignore that consumers have more exibility to adjust their schedule in the longer run than in the shorter run, implying that also these valuations may...

Door-to-Door Travel Times in RP Departure Time Choice Models : An Approximation Method Based on GPS Data

Peer, Stefanie; Knockaert, Jasper; Koster, Paul; Tseng, … - 2014

A common way to determine values of travel time and schedule delay is to estimate departure time choice models, using stated preference (SP) or revealed preference (RP) data. The latter are used less frequently, mainly because of the di fficulties to collect the data required for the model...

Externalities in Urban Sustainability

Verhoef, Erik T.; Nijkamp, Peter - 2000

This paper studies urban sustainability from the perspective ofexternalities. We develop a general spatialequilibrium model of a monocentric city, in which two types ofexternalities occur. On the one hand, pollution inthe industrial centre leads to a spatially differentiateddeterioration of the...

The Implementation of Marginal External Cost Pricing in Road Transport

Verhoef, Erik T. - 1998

This paper discusses a number of issues that will become increasingly important nowthat the concept of marginal external cost pricing becomes more likely to be implementedas a policy strategy in transport in reality. The first part of the paper deals with thelong-run efficiency of marginal...

Second-Best Congestion Pricing in General Static Transportation Networks with Elastic Demand

Verhoef, Erik T. - 1998

This paper studies the second-best problem where not all links of acongested transportation network can be tolled. The second-best taxrule for this problem is derived for general static networks, so thatthe solution presented is valid for any graph of the network, and forany set of tolling...
