Discrete Choice Models in Preference Space and Willingness-to Pay Space

Train, Kenneth; Weeks, Melvyn - 2004

In models with unobserved taste heterogeneity, distributional assumptions can be placed in two ways: (1) by specifying the distribution of coefficients in the utility function and deriving the distribution of willingness to pay (wtp), or (2) by specifying the distribution of wtp and deriving the...

Emerging Markets for GM Foods: A Study of Consumer's Willingness to Pay in India

Deodhar, Satish Y.; Ganesh, Sankar; Chern, Wen S. - 2008

A random utility approach is used to estimate logit equations which indicate what factors affect the likelihood of consumption of non-GM and GM foods, and, whether or not consumers are willing to pay a premium for non-GM/GM foods. Ceteris paribus as the price difference between non-GM and GM...

Characterizing Spatial Pattern in Ecosystem Service Values when Distance Decay Doesn’t Apply: Choice Experiments and Local Indicators of Spatial Association

Johnston, Robert J.; Ramachandran, Mahesh; Schultz, Eric T. - 2011

Stated preference analyses commonly impose strong and unrealistic assumptions in response to spatial welfare heterogeneity. These include spatial homogeneity or continuous distance decay. Despite their ubiquity in the valuation literature, global assumptions such as these have been increasingly...

Modelling heterogeneity in response behaviour towards a sequence of discrete choice questions: a probabilistic decision process model

McNair, Ben J.; Heshner, David A.; Bennett, Jeffrey W. - 2011

There is a growing body of evidence in the non-market valuation literaturesuggesting that responses to a sequence of discrete choice questions tend to violate theassumptions typically made by analysts regarding independence of responses andstability of preferences. Decision processes (or...
