We report on a discrete-choice CV study conducted in Germany to value the WTP for biodiversity protection in less developed countries. To systematically investigate survey realism and subjective threat assessment from the loss of biodiversity described in the scenario the study includes...

Reported in this paper are the findings from two discrete choice experiments that were carried out to address the value of a number of farm landscape improvement measures within the Rural Environment Protection (REP) Scheme in Ireland. Image manipulation software is used to prepare...

Within the discrete choice literature, there is growing recognition that some respondents do not process all attributes when evaluating their choice outcomes. Worryingly, the cost attribute is often among those attributes that are likely to be ignored by respondents. We use probabilistic...

This paper reports findings from two discrete choice experiments that were carried out to value landscape improvement measures within the Rural Environment Protection (REP) Scheme in Ireland. Using a mixed logit specification willingness to pay (WTP) distributions based on the parameter...

In this paper we extend the independent availability logit and combined latent class mixed logit models to accommodate respondents with different consideration sets due to their cost thresholds and cut-offs. Pertinent features of our model are that it is estimated in WTP-space and that the...

Positive response density estimation from CV interval data affords efficiency gains which must be weighed against the risk of introducing potential bias during questions iteration. This study examines the effect of eliciting a third response on a set of often-used welfare measures derived in a...
