Accounting for differences in modelled estimates of RP, SP and RP/SP direct petrol price elasticities for car mode choice: A warning
Published 2010-09-01Using a sample of 245 direct petrol price elasticities of car travel collected from 52 published mode choice studies, a random coefficient regression model is estimated to account for heterogeneity in the influence of the ...Open AccessWorking Paper -
Accounting for Exogenous Information on Decision Maker Processing Strategies in Models of Discrete Choice: Attribute Exclusion Strategies in Airline Choice
Published 2005-08-01In this paper, we examine the impact of individual specific information processing strategies (IPS) on the inclusion/exclusion of attributes on the parameter estimates and behavioural outputs of models of discrete choice. ...Open AccessWorking Paper -
Accounting for Heterogeneity in the Variance of Unobserved Effects in Mixed Logit Models
Published 2005-01-01The growing popularity of mixed logit to obtain estimates of willingness to pay (WTP) has focussed on the distribution of the random parameters and the possibility of estimating deep parameters to account for heterogeneity ...Open AccessWorking Paper -
Accounting for the Location and Allocation of Working Hours throughout the Working Week: A Discrete-Continuous Choice model
Published 2024-08-08As COVID-19 becomes a close distant memory for many, we are seeing the impact it has had on where working hours throughout the week are being undertaken. It is not unreasonable to assume that the support for greater ...Open AccessWorking Paper -
Accounting for the spatial incidence of working from home in an integrated transport and land model system
