متن کاملThe Impact of Choice on Public Services
It is well observed that individual behaviour can have an effect on the efficiency of queueing systems. The impact of this behaviour on the economic efficiency of public services is considered in this paper where we present results concerning the congestion related implications of decisions made by individuals when choosing between facilities.

متن کاملDiscrete Choice
Classical consumer theory assumes that products are infinitely divisible and consumers may purchase fractional quantities as dictated by their preferences and budget sets. However,for many goods and services individuals purchase only a few and sometimes at most one. Thus classical models of discrete choice in economics were developed to extend consumer choice theory to model demand of discrete ...
متن کاملDiscrete Choice and Censoring
Multinomial Choice: Data consists of consumer choices of various goods, along char acteristics. Let there be J choices and y = (y1, . . . , yJ ) where yj = 1 if good j is chosen and yj = 0 otherwise. Let x be observed characteristics of the goods and choices. Here a conditional density for y corresponds to conditional choice probabilities P (j|x, β), one for each j, with �J j=1 P (j|x, β) = 1 ...
متن کاملDeveloping attributes and levels for a discrete choice experiment on basic health insurance in Iran
Background: Nonmarket stated preferences valuation, especially discrete choice experiments (DCEs), is one of the commonly used techniques in the health sector. The primary purpose of this approach is to help select attributes and attributes-levels that are able to properly describe health care products or services. This study aimed at developing attributes and attributes-levels for basic health...
