Re: Advice on Creating a Candidate Set for Partial Profile

We keep this in mind. In each choice set, the best choice should be dynamically hidden, leaving only the remaining alternatives for the best-best choice. Otherwise this would possibly increase the completion time. We will check whether we can implement this with SE.
Thank you very much!

Re: Advice on Creating a Candidate Set for Partial Profile

Dear Michiel,

Thank you very much, that was very helpful. I have now written a script in Stata that gives me great flexibility in creating the candidate set. I actually got the candidate set down to 2000. Ngene was a bit slow at 10000 and above and crashed occasionally (which is probably due to my ...

Re: Advice on Creating a Candidate Set for Partial Profile

Addendum: I added the reject property in the first syntax above and it seems to work. I got a random design with 10.000 rows without any overlaps. Even though Ngene sometimes crashes on my computer. Not sure if some efficiency has been lost. Could this be a proper solution?

In my opinion, the ...

Advice on Creating a Candidate Set for Partial Profile

Hello,

I would like to create a partial profile design with 13 attributes, each with 5 levels and 3 unlabelled alternatives. Only 6 of the attributes are to be displayed in the final version. The design creation works well overall, but I would like to avoid a particular issue, if possible. For the ...

Re: Experimental design for all 2-way interactions

Thank you very much! I really appreciate your help and I apologize for the constant questions. I was a bit confused because my simulation data looked good, but the pretest showed a completely different picture. (The "conspicuous pattern" was then only due to the fact that individual participants ...

Re: Experimental design for all 2-way interactions

Dear Michiel,

I used the OOD in a pretest and encountered a few problems. The preference data did not appear as expected. However, in a previous simulation using the OOD, I was able to reproduce all assumed coefficients. I took a closer look at the design and found some conspicuous patterns.

This ...

Re: Experimental design for all 2-way interactions

Thank you very much again, also for pointing out the Asterisk (that was a careless copy-and-paste error). I'm looking forward to the new version 2.0.

Re: Experimental design for all 2-way interactions

Dear Michiel, I have a follow-up question: I happened to stumble upon a comment in the forum where you wrote that there was a bug that only occurs in some cases with 5 or more levels and only affects the D-Optimality message. In our final design with more than 5 levels, “Undefined” is displayed in ...

Re: Experimental design for all 2-way interactions

Thank you very much again!

We cannot establish a clear preference order for risk and incentives, as there appear to be dependencies on the region/field. Without a pilot, this will be hard to determine. I will test and compare the efficient design (using the Modified Federov algorithm) and the OOD ...
