Handling respondent uncertainty in Choice Experiments: Evaluating recoding approaches against explicit modelling of uncertainty

Choosing Between Internet and Mail Survey Modes for Choice Experiment Surveys Considering Non-Market Goods

“…Interestingly, a significant difference in scale parameters is identified, implying that the mail sample obtains a higher degree of precision in the estimation than the internet sample. Considering the positive correlation between certainty in choice and estimation precision established in Lundhede et al (2009), this result is at odds with the fact that, when asked directly, internet respondents state a generally higher level of certainty in their choices.…”

“…This result is somewhat surprising considering the above results concerning the lower degree of estimation precision in the internet sample. Lundhede et al (2009) find evidence that as the certainty in choice increases, scale parameters increase, i.e., error variance decreases, and, hence, precision increases. A straight-forward interpretation of the counter results found in the present paper could be that internet panellists are relatively more experienced in terms of answering questionnaires.…”

Attribute processing as a behavioural strategy in choice making

“…The functional forms presented herein, as well as responses to self-stated intention questions, enable the analyst to infer, up to a probability, the presence of some very specific attribute 1 This chapter does not consider other aspects of process in choice experiments such as uncertainty in the choice response. See Lundhede et al (2010). 2 This chapter is focused on stated choice surveys.…”

Intra-respondent Heterogeneity in a Stated Choice Survey on Wetland Conservation in Belarus: First Steps Towards Creating a Link with Uncertainty in Contingent Valuation

“…Li and Mattson 1995;Welsh and Poe 1998;see Kobayashi et al, 2012 for a detailed overview of this approach), an approach since also adopted in many SC studies (e.g. Norwood, 2005;Hensher et al, 2011;Lundhede et al, 2009;Dekker et al 2013 -see also Dekker, 2012 for detailed overview of preference uncertainty in SC). The nature of SC studies (i.e.…”
