PhD Course: DRL035 Stated Choice Analysis

This practical-based course provides an in-depth introduction to stated choice survey design and modelling. It focuses on the definition, design, and deployment of rigorous and robust techniques, based on sound microeconomic theory. Investigating agents’ preferences with respect to hypothetical scenarios allows predicting the behavioural change that adopting any intervention policy could produce.​

One can use Stated Preference and Discrete Choice Models whenever examining individual/group choices in any given hypothetical context. These techniques are extensively used in fields as diverse as transport, health, marketing, and environmental economics.

The course intertwines lectures, computer tutorials (using the R software), and case studies. It covers all the practical steps required for successful choice modelling analyses, from inception via survey design and data collection to modelling, analysis, and interpretation.
