A consumer perspective of green event performance
von der Heidt, Tania; Firmin, Rose - 2009
This paper looks at the under-researched area of assessing organisational green performance and its drivers from the consumer’s point of view. Drawing on the green literature, a model is advanced in which certain environmental attitudes held by consumers drive or restrain the performance...

Estimation of multinomial logit models with unobserved heterogeneity using maximum simulated likelihood
Haan, Peter; Uhlendorff, Arne - 2006
In this paper, we suggest a Stata routine for multinomial logit models with unobserved heterogeneity using maximum simulated likelihood based on Halton sequences. The purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we describe the technical implementation of the estimation routine and discuss its...

Discrete choice models, which one performs better?
Gallardo, Rosa Karina; Chang, Jae Bong - 2010
For over the last thirty years the multinomial logit model has been the standard in choice modeling. Development in econometrics and computational algorithms has led to the increasing tendency to opt for more flexible models able to depict more realistically choice behavior. This study compares...
