Willingness-to-Pay for Attribute Level and Variability: The Case of Mexican Millersâ€™ Demand for Hard Red Winter Wheat

Gallardo, Rosa Karina; Lusk, Jayson L.; Holcomb, Rodney B. - In: Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics 41 (2009) 03

In-person interviews were carried out with Mexican millers who were administered a conjoint-type survey designed to incorporate uncertainty in attribute levels. Two methods were used to model millersâ€™ risk preferences: a modified mean-variance approach and an explicit expected utility...

Pitman closeness results for Type-I censored data from exponential distribution

Balakrishnan, N.; Davies, Katherine F. - In: Statistics & Probability Letters 83 (2013) 12, pp. 2693-2698

Recent work on Pitman closeness has compared estimators under Type-II censored samples from exponential distribution based on observed number of failures. In this paper, we carry out similar Pitman closeness comparisons for Type-I censored samples from exponential distribution based on time...
