In recent years, major advances have taken place in three areas of random utility modeling: (1) semiparametric estimation, (2) computational methods for multinomial probit models, and (3) computational methods for Bayesian stimation. This paper summarizes these developments and discusses their...

This paper provides evidence that workers' compensation (WC) and unemployment insurance (UI)could affect not only the occurence of workplace accident claims, but also the composition of these reported accidents. Our theoretical framework predicts that, under plausible assumptions, an increase in...

In this paper, we applied the generalized mixed estimation approach to the problem of estimating the Quebec residential electricity demand for space and water heating. A multinomial discrete-continuous choice model is used and estimated in two stages. The discrete choice is modelled as a...
