Much of the evidence raising doubts about Expected Utility Theory (EUT) comes from experiments involving hypothetical decisions. Most of the rest of the evidence comes from experiments where respondents are asked to make a large number of decisions, knowing that only one of these will provide...

This paper presents a hedonic housing price model for the city of Glasgow in Scotland. The major innovation of the research is the use of hierarchical clustering techniques to identify property submarkets defined by a combination of property types, locations and socioeconomic characteristics of...

Contingent valuation (CV) surveys frequently employ elicitation procedures that return interval-censored data on respondents' willingness to pay (WTP). Almost exclusively, CV practitioners have applied Turnbull's self-consistent algorithm to such data in order to obtain nonparametric maximum...

Previous work on hedonic price functions tends to have focused on one of a number of specification and estimation issues; namely, market segmentation, choice of functional form, multicollinearity or spatial autocorrelation. The purpose of this paper is to bring together these various strands to...

Recent advances in the theoretical understanding of equilibria in property markets predict that the equilibrium hedonic price function will typically be highly nonlinear. Rather than adopting progressively more flexible econometric specifications to deal with this nonlinearity we adopt an...

For many industrialised nations environmental noise is emerging as a local pollutant of major concern. Incorporating such concerns into policy guidance tools such as social cost benefit analysis requires estimates of the monetised benefits of noise reduction. Using a two-stage hedonic pricing...
