This paper investigates preferences for various environment-friendly production system for carrots using discretechoice multi-attribute stated-preference data amongst buyers and explore the effect of collective reputations from growers of an Alpine valley known to be completely dedicated to...

This paper investigates preference heterogeneity of wine consumers by using latent class models based onattitudinal questions. Such responses turn out to be an important source of additional information when the goalis to identify different groups of people with a similar wine preference...

Land management in Alpine Parks provides multifunctional services to separate groups of users. Choice experiments can be used to derive estimates of value for different management attributes. However, little research has been conducted on how frequently respondents ignore attributes used to...

This study was an important start to explore the feasibility of applying stated preference discrete choice modelling (SPDCM) for use in developing breast screening participation enhancement strategies. It needs to be followed by further research to establish model validity and authoritative...

Stated choice models based on the random utility framework are becoming increasingly popular inthe applied economics literature. The need to account for respondents’ preference heterogeneity insuch models has motivated researchers in agricultural, environmental, health and transporteconomics...

How people make choices in relation to cultural and leisure consumption has been explored from the viewpoint of motivation, lifestyle segmentation, and lifecycle. Little is known about the specific characteristics associated with choices to visit, re-visit, or not to visit a museum....

Applications of discrete choice experiments to study consumer choice behavior have grown significantly over the past decade. Typically, discrete choice experiment data are analyzed using McFadden’s Multinomial Logit (MNL) model or a more sophisticated extension that relaxes some of MNL’s...

Climate change is one of the toughest challenges facing the world today. Putting a price on carbonemissions is an important step towards climate change mitigation. A cap and trade system is one ofthe ways to create a carbon price. The New Zealand Emissions Trading Scheme (NZETS) is theworld’s...
