Heterogeneous Preferences for Public Goods Provided by Agriculture in a Region of Intensive Agricultural Production: The Case of the Marchfeld
(MDPI, 2018-06)
The aim of this paper is to elicit the marginal willingness to pay (MWTP) for the improved provision of public goods (PGs) by agriculture in a region of intensive agricultural production, embodying many of the environmental ...
Transferring landscape values using discrete choice experiments: Is meta-analysis an option?
(Asociación Española de Economía Agraria, 2014-06-30)
[EN] Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE) is an increasingly used valuation method to guide policy-makers in their landscape management decision-making. However, due to time and budget constraints, conducting an original DCE ...
A More Flexible Model or Simply More Effort? On the Use of Correlated Random Parameters in Applied Choice Studies
(Elsevier, 2018-08-28)
The random parameter logit model has become the dominating model for analyzing stated choice data in environmental valuation. The unrestricted version of the model with correlated random parameters, however, is rarely ...
Interpreting correlated random parameters in choice experiments
(Elsevier, 2020-07-28)
The random parameter logit (RPL) model with uncorrelated coefficients is a restrictive version of the mixed logit model, but it is one of the most frequently used models for analysing stated choice data in environmental ...
Incorporating attitudes into the evaluation of preferences regarding agri-environmental practices
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2021-08-07)
Many stated preference studies have shown that individuals’ attitudes play an important role in explaining their behaviour and helping to disentangle preference heterogeneity. When responses to attitudinal questions are ...

On the Validity and Reliability of coastal quality change estimates: Evidence from Norway
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2021-02-17)
Coastal managers are faced with the challenge of managing sites to maintain or improve their quality. The quality of each coastal site is characterized by site attributes that visitors care about. Since coastal managers ...
Selecting random parameters in discrete choice experiment for environmental valuation: A simulation experiment
(Elsevier, 2013-06-03)
This paper examines two tests commonly used to select random parameters in choice modelling: the Lagrange Multiplier (LM) test as proposed by McFadden and Train (2000) and the t-statistic of the deviation of the random ...
Parents’ Willingness to Pay for Bilingualism: Evidence From Spain
(Springer, 2022-07-11)
We analyse parental school preferences in two contiguous provinces of northern Spain, which offer very different school choices since only one of them is bilingual. Basque- Spanish bilingualism affects the school system, ...
Suitability of discrete choice experiments for landscape management under the European Landscape Convention
(Elsevier, 2015-02-26)
[EN] Landscapes throughout the world are increasingly being altered as a result of human actions and natural processes, therefore necessitating urgent management. Acknowledging this situation, the European Landscape ...
