Efficiency benefits of choice model experimental design updating: a case study

Kerr, Geoffrey N.; Sharp, Basil M.H. - Australian Agricultural and Resource Economics Society … - 2009

Efficient experimental designs offer the potential to reduce confidence intervals for parameters of interest in choice models, or to reduce required sample sizes. C-efficiency recognises the salience of willingness to pay estimates rather than utility function parameters. This study reports on a...

Absolute vs. Relative Notion of Wealth Changes

Kontek, Krzysztof - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009

This paper discusses solutions derived from lottery experiments using two alternative assumptions: that people perceive wealth changes as absolute amounts of money; and that people consider wealth changes as a proportion of some reference value dependant on the context of the problem under...

"The Way in which an Experiment is Conducted is Unbelievably Important": On the Experimentation Practices of Economists and Psychologists

Ortmann, Andreas - CESifo - 2009

To discuss experimental results without discussing how they came about makes sense when the results are robust to the way experiments are conducted. Experimental results, however, are – arguably more often than not – sensitive to numerous design and implementation characteristics such as the...

Efficient design for willingness to pay in choice experiments: evidence from the field

Kerr, Geoffrey N.; Sharp, Basil M.H. - New Zealand Agricultural and Resource Economics Society … - 2009

Efficient experimental designs offer the potential to reduce confidence intervals for parameters of interest in choice models, or to reduce required sample sizes. C-efficiency recognizes the salience of willingness to pay estimates rather than utility function parameters. This study reports on a...
