Abstract:

Many times governments and policy makers have to choose among different projects or policies to implement. In principle, the best choice is the one which maximizes the social welfare that, in turn, depends on individual preferences. But very often preferences are unknown and even not observable. In practice, a common procedure is to directly ask a sample of individuals about their preferences, which are therefore stated by agents rather than revealed by their behaviour. Methods for preference revelation can be classified into two broad families. The first one involves the case in whic

Abstract:

Background & Aim The PhD aimed to quantify preferences for depression treatments using Discrete Choice Experiments (DCEs). A secondary aim was to investigate the relationship between demographic variables, psychological variables and preferences. Methods & Analysis Two DCEs were designed and administered, investigating preferences for treatment of depression by: (1) a drug and (2) a physical activity intervention. The DCE designs were informed by focus groups and qualitative interviews. A best-worst scaling DCE was used for both studies. The physical activity intervention DCE was included in t

Abstract:

This PhD thesis examines the way in which individuals make choices during stated preference experiments (commonly referred subsets of which are called stated choice methods, conjoint analysis and trade-off analysis). Stated preference experiments ask respondents to rank, rate or choose between different product/service options, which are made up of a number of attribute mixes. The responses made by individuals within these experiments allow researchers to estimate consumer preferences. This thesis traces the historical background of stated preference experiments, from the field of utility theo

Abstract:

Most governments in the world provide some publicly funded healthcare to their citizens, but given the scarcity of resources relative to potential demand, some form of rationing or priority setting is required, and some patients must be denied effective treatment. The thesis took the position that an explicit approach based on maximising the value that society derives from healthcare is the preferred way to address this rationing problem. Conventional health economic practice proposes that value should be equated with quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), leading to a policy of QALY maximisatio

The isssue of housing preference has been widely researched in housing literature, because it provides valuable information for the planning and development of housing for various residential groups with different needs.

Abstract:

Stated Preference (SP) methods have been used extensively in transport research and elsewhere both for demand forecasting purposes and to value the importance attached to different product features and travel attributes. Alongside the broader acceptance and wider application of SP methods, some practitioners (Bates, 1998; Ampt et al., 2000; Wardman and Shires, 2001) have argued for greater openness in discussing what they see as significant concerns surrounding SP. The present study is motivated by the desire to analyse and reduce biases in the SP application, specifically addressing the issue

The impact of road transport and road transport infrastructure on the environment is an important public issue in the United Kingdom today.

Furthermore, critics state that the present evaluation process is complicated by the number and type of qualitative and quantitative measures of environmental impact, this leads to confusion and non-standardisation in the

The Indian Railways (IR) have, over the past four decades, been steadily losing market share, in both passenger and freight markets.

In line with the pattern of economic growth, the manufactured goods sector is the fastest growing sector of the economy.

Abstract:

Recent medical studies have led cardiologists to revise theories regarding the cause of heart attacks. Rather than a gradual clogging of the arteries, eruption of a vulnerable plaque is thought to be the cause of approximately 75% of all heart attacks. As a result, traditional risk factors are no longer sufficient indicators of who is at risk for a heart attack. Therefore, this research investigates the willingness to pay (WTP) for a new, hypothetical detection (screening) and treatment method for vulnerable plaque. For this study, two survey instruments were developed that take advantage of t

Abstract:

The rapid increase in electricity demand in Chile requires major investments in either renewable or non-renewable sources. This thesis values major externalities of different generation methods. It also investigates several methodological problems in using Stated Preference Methods. The thesis consists of four articles in Contingent Valuation and Choice Experiments. The first article considers future electricity supply in Chile by investigating households' preferences for different sources (renewable energy sources (RES), fossil fuels and large hydropower from Chilean Patagonia).
