The former involves labelling the policy options to be presented to respondents in a generic way, for example, as ‘option A’, ‘option B’, etc. The labelled approach assigns alternativespecific descriptors to each option.

CM permits value estimates for di¡erent goods sharing a common set of attributes to be pieced together using the results of a single multinomial (conditional) logit model.

While this is theoretically possible through the application of distributional weights, this practice has not been generally adopted due to difficulties in determining appropriate weights. This paper suggests that ...
