A scoping inquiry into the potential contribution of Subjective Probability Theory, Dempster–Shafer Theory and Possibility Theory in accommodating degrees of belief in traveller behaviour research

Abstract: There is a small but growing interest in traveller behaviour research on investigating ways to identify and quantify degrees of belief (as subjective probabilities or other propositions) associated with behavioural responses, especially in the context of popular travel choice methods such as stated choice experiments, as a way of adding to our understanding of decision making in real-world contexts that are associated with inevitable risk and uncertainty. This paper reviews three major theories that are not we… Show more

“…The majority of studies assumed a neutral attitude (=1) in the linear utility functional form (see e.g., Small et al 1999;Bates et al 2001;Hollander 2006;Asensio and Matas 2008). The significance of accounting for attitude is highlighted in Hensher (2011), andLi (2014). Recently, a number of travel time variability studies start to address this issue, by statistically estimating the attitude parameters in different nonlinear function forms (see e.g., Hensher and Li, 2012;Li et al, 2012;Li et al, 2013 among others).…”

“…However, subjective probabilities are still constrained by the axioms of classical probability theory 2 (Ayton and Wright 1994). For example, the sum of a set of mutually exclusive and exhaustive set of events is one (see Hensher and Li 2014).…”
