Re: From WTP estimates to prior parameters

And one more follow-up:
Can you give a quantification of how wide priors will be problematic? Are for example the priors in the example below considered "wide"?
U(alt1)=b1[(u,-0.06,-0.03)]*A[-1,0] + b2[(u,0.04,-0.09)]*B[0,1] + b3.dummy[(u,0.09,0.18)|(u,0.06,0.12)]*C[10,20,40] +b4[(u,-0.011,-0.0006 ...

Re: From WTP estimates to prior parameters

Thankyou for the response :)

What do think of the overall method of going from WTP estimates to prior parameters?
I am particularly concerned with how to best go go about setting the price parameter (which will then determine the level of the rest of the parameters). I know that the price ...

From WTP estimates to prior parameters

I have an experiment where I have some knowledge from previous research on the magnitude of WTP for (most of) the features in my DCE.
So my question is, how do I get from payment estimates to the regression estimates used in the description of priors?

My idea is to do the following:
1. Get min-max ...

Re: Efficiency measure and utility balance

Thankyou for the response!
I've done some more experimenting with the code and noticed that for the WTP efficiency measure, the B-estimate appears to become lower if I make the price prior more uncertain (widen the uniform interval), which I think makes sense.

I have a question regarding the ...

Efficiency measure and utility balance

I have recently experimented a great deal with different ways of creating designs in Ngene and I have a couple of questions and concerns.
The designs in question all involve to unlabelled alternatives with some knowledge as to the sign of effects, and possibly expectations regarding the relative ...

Re: Blocking reproducibility

Hi Andrew

Thanks for the reply. It sounds good with the improvement for the next Ngene release - for now it is ok with the current solution.
What about the iteration timing issue? (see last part of my original question):

"To be sure that the blocking structure is appropriate (near-minimum ...

Blocking reproducibility

Hi

I have a question regarding the blocking functionality. I would like to be able to reproduce a blocking structure so that it won't change every time I open the design file. And to know more about what an appropriate search time is.

In a previous post Johnr have written "To locate a blocking ...
