Re: generating priors

Hi,

below is the syntax I used to generate a Bayesian efficient design.

Design
;alts = alt1*, alt2*,alt3*
;rows = 24
;block = 6
;eff = (mnl,d,mean)
;model:
U(alt1) = colour.dummy[(n,-1.16,0.35)|(n,-1.19,0.37)|(n,-1.62,0.36)] * colour[0,1,2,3] + b3[(u,-1,0)] * taste[0,1]+ b4[(n,-0.58,0.23 ...

Re: generating priors

hi,

the last time I asked about use of priors are that are not significant, you told me to use a Bayesian efficient design for a prior that is marginally insignificant. now suppose I have a prior that is very insignificant, do I still use it in that way?

secondly, I ran a binary logit with no ...

Re: generating priors

hi,

can I say the I will use a binary logit to analyze data from pilot survey since I don't have the third alternative of opt-out?
secondly, can I use the RPL on the pilot survey data with two alternatives?

generating priors

Greetings Michiel

I have two questions though they seem to be general.

in generating orthogonal designs to use in the pilot survey, do I need to include the "opt-out" option or it only appears during efficient design?

secondly, while analyzing data for the pilot study to obtain priors, do I ...

Re: labelling alternatives

hullo Michael,

I try to get your explanation. my question still is how to obtain the two priors for the two levels if I had not provided for two parameters in the initial utility function. I thought that in order to obtain two priors, I must have made a provision for two parameter estimates in the ...

Re: labelling alternatives

Dear Michael,
thank you for the feedback. am trying all the options that you are giving. though you already pointed out that my questions are general, am gaining a lot from you. my interest is actually to investigate attributes of each product and vary them in order to capture trade-offs between ...

Re: labelling alternatives

hullo Michael,
I posted a question about labeling alternatives. you said it more of a general question. to be specific, the background of my study is thus: there is limited demand for sorghum products due to undesirable attributes in the current sorghum varieties. the aim of my study is to determine ...

labelling alternatives

hullo, am doing a study on preferences for sorghum grain. am specifically studying three products made out of the grain, that is, porridge, beer and bread. my question is whether I should make a design for each of the products. which is the best way to handle this? what complicates the matter is the ...
