A Bayesian mixed logit-probit model for multinomial choice

Burda, Martin; Harding, Matthew; Hausman, Jerry - 2008

In this paper we introduce a new flexible mixed model for multinomial discrete choice where the key individual- and alternative-specific parameters of interest are allowed to follow an assumptionfree nonparametric density specification while other alternative-specific coefficients are assumed to...

Career Progression and Comparative Advantage

Yamaguchi, Shintaro - Department of Economics, McMaster University - 2008

This paper constructs and structurally estimates a dynamic occupational choice model that has two distinct features. First, an occupation is vertically and horizontally differentiated by a multidimensional task complexity measure. This allows a simultaneous analysis of career progression and...

Accounting for Incomplete Pass-Through

Nakamura, Emi; Zerom, Dawit - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2008

Recent theoretical work has suggested a number of potentially important factors in causing incomplete pass-through of exchange rates to prices, including markup adjustment, local costs and barriers to price adjustment. We empirically analyze the determinants of incomplete passthrough in the coee...

Palma, André De; Dunkerley, Fay; Proost, Stef - HAL - 2008

This paper studies how trip chaining (combining commuting and shopping or commuting and child care) affects market competition: in particular, pricing and the equilibrium number of firms as well as welfare. We use a monopolistic competition framework, where firms sell differentiated products as...

On the (im-)possibility of deriving transport policy implications from hybrid choice models

Chorus, Caspar G.; Kroesen, Maarten - In: Transport Policy 36 (2014) C, pp. 217-222

This paper focuses on hybrid choice models of the type increasingly being used by travel demand modelers, which include latent perception and attitude related variables. We argue that, contrary to current practice, these models do not support the derivation of policies that aim to change travel...

Synopsis of bicycle demand in the City of Toronto: Investigating the effects of perception, consciousness and comfortability on the purpose of biking and bike ownership

Habib, Khandker Nurul; Mann, Jenessa; Mahmoud, Mohamed; … - In: Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice 70 (2014) C, pp. 67-80

This paper provides an empirical basis for the evaluation of policies and programs that can increase the usage of bikes for different purposes as well as bike ownership. It uses an integrated econometric model of latent variable connecting multiple discrete choices. Empirical models are...
