This paper reports on a study which seeks to improve our understanding of how people choose between different kinds of flight at competing airports, and how their choices are affected by access conditions. In particular, using stated choice data collected in Scotland, it investigates whether...

With the growing interest in the topic of attribute non-attendance, there is now widespread use of latent class (LC) structures aimed at capturing such behaviour, across a number of different fields. Specifically, these studies rely on a confirmatory LC model, using two separate values for each...

In recent years we have seen an explosion of research seeking to understand the role that rules and heuristics might play in improving the predictive capability of discrete choice models, as well as delivering willingness to pay estimates for specific attributes that may (and often do) differ...

A growing number of studies across different fields are making use of a new class of choice models, labelled variably as hybrid model structures or integrated choice and latent variable models, and incorporating the role of attitudes in decision making. To date, this technique has not been used...

Governments around the world use monetised values of transport externalities to undertake project appraisal and cost–benefit analysis. However, because different types of benefits are monetised (e.g., travel time savings, preventing statistical fatalities, reliability, etc.) the question...

With the need for accurate forecasts of passenger demand, the airline sector is increasingly making use of behavioural models calibrated on data from stated choice surveys that allow for the analysis of hypothetical travel situations. To allow analysts to better frame the scenarios presented to...

Recent interest in the topic of random scale heterogeneity in discrete choice data has led to the development of specialised tools such as the G-MNL model, as well as repeated claims that studies which fail to separate scale heterogeneity from heterogeneity in individual coefficients are likely...
