Abstract:
... The random parameter logit model has become the dominating model for analyzing stated choice data in environmental valuation. The unrestricted version of the model with correlated random parameters, however, is rarely applied. An important advantage of this specification is that the correlations between the parameters are not restricted to zero. These correlations can arise due to a behavioural ph ...

Abstract:
... Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is built on the Kaldor-Hicks efficiency criterion whereby projects that have aggregate positive net benefits are recommended even if those who lose are not compensated for their losses. Two kinds of problems can be identified with the use of the criterion. First, as income tends to affect monetary welfare changes positively, the preferences of those with higher wealth h ...

Abstract:
... Value orientations towards wildlife affect the way people perceive nature and their connection with animals. In particular, the social psychological literature within the environmental field suggests that there are two main orientations of people towards wildlife: mutualism and domination. This body of literature has shown how wildlife value orientations can serve as predictors of attitudes and be ...

Abstract:
... Ecosystem Services (ES) – the direct (e.g., food and natural medicines) and indirect (e.g., cultural diversity and aesthetic values) benefits people obtain from various ecosystems – need to be assessed to aid decision makers and concerned public in creating policies that ensure continuous flow of ES to their beneficiaries (e.g., fisheries, food, income, livelihood, and traditional way of life to f ...

Subject:
willingness to pay,   etc   ; algorithms; contingent valuation; decision making; income; population density; social benefit; taste; South Korea;     Show all 9 Subjects
Abstract:
... Because the social benefit generated from a public facility varies according to its accessibility, population density of location, local income level, local taste, and the existence of similar nearby facilities, the value of facilities can vary depending on their location. Therefore, determining the ideal location is an important problem. This study provides a new direction for solving this proble ...
