We develop a model of CSF behavior, where stated and visual consideration are embedded in the specification of the utility function. We propose three different measures of visual consideration and show that one third of respondents (∼34%) use CSF behavior and that stated consideration diverges substantially from visual consideration.

Our findings suggest that stated consideration may be in part a measure of preferences rather than of consideration, implying concerns with endogeneity when including stated consideration data in choice models.

In the past literature, the models’ parameters have been put forward as being able to capture the psychological processes in a decision maker’s mind during deliberation. DFT models have been widely used to analyse human decision making behaviour, and many empirical applications in the choice modelling domain rely solely on data concerning the observed final choice. This raises the question if such data are rich enough to allow for the identification of the model’s parameters. Insight into identifiability and distinguishability is crucial as it allows the researcher to determine which behavioural and psychological conclusions can or cannot be drawn from the estimated DFT model and how a DFT model can be specified in such a way that resulting parameters have meaningful interpretations. In this paper, we address this issue. To do this, we first show which specifications of DFT are equivalent to conventional probit models. Then, building on this equivalence result, we apply established analytical methods to highlight and explain the identification and distinguishability issues that arise when estimating DFT models on conventional choice data. We find evidence that some of the DFT models’ special cases suffer from identifiability issues. Our results warrant caution when DFT models are used to infer psychological processes and human behaviour from conventional choice data, and they help researchers choose the correct specification of DFT models.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46863,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Choice Modelling","volume":"45 ","pages":"Article 100358"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1755534522000161/pdfft?md5=0dae72f33f6af8de04230e882196343c&pid=1-s2.0-S1755534522000161-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72374149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the discounting theory fails to explain some types of preference reversals. Furthermore, preference reversals are limited to those along the time axis (i.e., temporal distance). To extend our knowledge of preference reversals in various choice contexts, this study constructs an analytical framework that combines the time discounting notion of behavioral decision theory and construal level theory developed in social psychology. We put forward three propositions for discounting: magnitude effect (the higher the construal level, the smaller the discounting rate), sign effect (the discounting rate is smaller for losses than for gains), and generalization of distance (discounting applies not only to temporal distance but also to psychological distances such as social distance). These propositions were validated in two studies. In Study 1, we conducted a series of three experiments on a lottery choice task using two samples of respondents (i.e., students and a web panel). In Study 2, we estimated the discounting rates of the higher and lower construal levels by employing multiple intertemporal choice tasks. While many choices involve trade-offs among attributes, the effects of changes in psychological distances are not clear. However, by identifying whether these attributes evoke high or low construal levels and whether the aspects are related to gains or losses, our approach greatly facilitates the analysis of how evaluation and preference are affected by psychological distance, and consequently, that of preference reversal behavior.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46863,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Choice Modelling","volume":"45 ","pages":"Article 100384"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90970378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the chosen alternative is not in the stated consideration set, the consideration data is inconsistent with the choice data. Several modeling approaches have been used in such situations. Some researchers ignore the consideration data and assume all alternatives are considered. Others only use the consistent choice data and delete the inconsistent observations. The most intricate methods use a latent consideration set formation approach in modeling the choice process. We extend the latent consideration set formation model to incorporate the stated consideration data but allow for inconsistencies in consideration and choice data, and allow for individual-level heterogeneity in the consideration and the choice process. We compare the recovery of the mean population preference parameters of our model with the existing approaches through simulation. The results show that if there is a similar effect of the attributes in both the consideration phase and the choice phase, the mixed logit model is not outperformed by the two-stage models. In contrast, when there is a sufficiently different effect of attributes in the consideration and the choice phase, two-stage models can recover the mean population preference parameters better than the mixed logit model. Furthermore, we can conclude that having stated consideration data barely improves the recovery of the mean preference parameters compared to a latent consideration set choice model that only uses choice data. Finally, we illustrate the models using empirical data about preferences for mobile phones.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46863,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Choice Modelling","volume":"45 ","pages":"Article 100374"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1755534522000318/pdfft?md5=708c73d2db9e5d7c46fc6c515bbd2f03&pid=1-s2.0-S1755534522000318-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83781584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Standard econometric practice focusses on these stages in isolation. We conceptualize the focal behaviours as separate sequential decision stages, and provide a stated preference measurement framework for online job search and choice with a behaviourally consistent modelling approach. We demonstrate this approach in an empirical application of 275 dentists who completed an online survey including two Discrete Choice Experiments: the first mimicked an online job search site in which dentists decided which jobs they would apply to and the second presented dentists with a job offer which they accepted or rejected. Modelling these tasks requires a two-stage econometric model that incorporates the likelihood of application (first stage) into the job offer choice (second stage). The model detects differences in preferences (hence behaviours) across stages, facilitating the differentiation of policy aimed at search and job choice behaviours. Job screening occurs during search and the marginal propensity to apply for a job-type differs from the offer stage. We suggest that the approach presented provides a valuable way to investigate how dentists particularly, and perhaps the health workforce more generally, respond at different stages of workforce participation decisions and discuss practical implications.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46863,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Choice Modelling","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100372"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S175553452200029X/pdfft?md5=052dad804a4cd291242f3064540c2818&pid=1-s2.0-S175553452200029X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91639956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is also a growing interest in understanding heterogeneity in individuals' preferences. Consequently, stated preference studies frequently consider models that capture either or both observed and unobserved preference heterogeneity. A popular preliminary investigation into heterogeneity involves split-sample analysis to compare subgroups' preferences e.g., comparing patients with clinicians, or older patients with younger. In fixed-effects models, the constant variables (the individuals’ characteristics) remain stable across choice sets and therefore only enter the choice model when interacted with various attributes and/or levels. However, subgroups of respondents may differ on multiple variables that may not easily be implemented with interaction terms because of complexity and a lack of power thus only one, or a few, variables are typically taken into account in each subgroup model. This paper presents an overview of methods for matching and balancing samples to weight individuals with different characteristics in subgroup analysis and an example of how unweighted comparisons may produce erroneous conclusions regarding the degree of heterogeneity in preferences. We illustrate the issue with synthetic and empirical datasets to explore methods for matching subgroups before and within simple choice models. Our results show that entropy balancing and </span>propensity score matching could be more appropriate than analyses using unmatched preference data when heterogeneity is driven by multiple factors. The paper concludes with a discussion of when matching and weighting may and may not be useful in healthcare decision-making.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":46863,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Choice Modelling","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100367"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91639957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
