The most common SP techniques used in transport studies are the choice modeling (CM) method and the contingent valuation method (CV).
This is a method commonly employed in environmental economics [16], where a range of approaches have been applied to value policy outcomes, including: travel cost method; hedonic price method; and the contingent valuation (CV) approach [16 18]), with the latter becoming increasingly popular in the economic evaluation of healthcare programmes [19].
It also would have been worthwhile to explore methodological issues by drawing comparisons of different methods for valuing time (e.g., proxy good method, opportunity cost, and contingent valuation) or different ways of calculating hours of care (e.g., diary method, recall method).
Indeed, many EMA studies borrow assessment strategies from a well-established tradition of longitudinal methods, such as experience sampling, diary methods, and event-contingent responding (Csikszentmihalyi and Larson 1987; Nelson 1977), and use many of these methods in concert to assess phenomena of interest.
For the empirical analysis, based on a survey of public preferences due to the good public characteristics of landscape amenities, we applied two stated preference methods: Conjoint Analysis (CA) and Contingent Valuation (CV).
Our research focused on the integration of social, ecological and economic components of landscape management based on stated social preferences and contingent valuation method (CVM).
A mail survey and contingent valuation method (CVM) were used to determine willingness to pay (WTP) to support planting of field windbreaks for aesthetic purposes.
This paper presents the method and findings of a contingent valuation (CV) study that aimed to elicit United Kingdom citizens' willingness to pay to support legislation to phase out the use of battery cages for egg production in the European Union (EU).
In this paper we report research that applied the choice experiment and contingent valuation methods to value the diversity of biological diversity.
To accomplish this goal, within different landscape units, we quantify the supply side by mapping the biophysical values of five ecosystem services, and the social demand exploring their socio-cultural and economic values by analyzing social preferences and contingent valuation methods, respectively.
