Abstract

Motivated by the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard (NBFDS), which requires companies to label bioengineered food products, this paper examines the choice effects of using a symbol approved by the standard relative to using text to disclose that a food product has bioengineered contents. Choice effects were determined using a randomized group design that assigned respondents to one-of-two labeled choice experiment groups. One group selected products that used the symbol disclosure and the other group selected products using text disclosure. Besides a label, the price was the only attribute displayed to respondents during the choice experiment and varied at three levels. The same price levels were used for all labels, and prices were balanced within a label, and balanced and orthogonal across labels. This randomized design using a discrete choice experiment allows for the identification of group effects, which in this paper are the choice effects associated with the form of bioengineering disclosure.

识别标签效应的随机分组方法
受国家生物工程食品披露标准(NBFDS)的启发,该标准要求企业为生物工程食品贴上标签,本文考察了使用该标准批准的符号相对于使用文本披露食品含有生物工程内容的选择效果。选择效应采用随机分组设计确定,将受访者分配到两个标记的选择实验组中的一个。一组选择了使用符号公开的产品,另一组选择使用文本公开的产品。除了标签之外,价格是在选择实验中显示给受访者的唯一属性,在三个层面上有所不同。所有标签都使用相同的价格水平,价格在一个标签内是平衡的,在标签之间是平衡和正交的。这种使用离散选择实验的随机设计允许识别群体效应,在本文中,群体效应是与生物工程披露形式相关的选择效应。
