“…It should be noted that the statistical analysis of such survey-obtained data is subjected to significant methodological challenges, most notably due to the almost ubiquitous presence of systematic unobserved variations in the received responses. This phenomenon is also known as unobserved heterogeneity (Mannering and Bhat, 2014;Mannering et al, 2016;Eker et al, 2019;Barbour et al, 2019;2020;Eker et al, 2020a;2020b;Ahmed et al, 2020a;2020b;2020c;Sheela and Mannering, 2020). To account for the methodological challenges arising from the presence of unobserved heterogeneity, a novel statistical modeling technique, namely the grouped random parameters bivariate probit model with heterogeneity in means is employed.…”
