Re: D-efficient design for pilot phase

Your first script is correct if your alternatives are unlabelled, the second script is correct of your alternatives are labelled.

Examples of unlabelled alternatives of the same type (generic):
- Policy A, Policy B
- Treatment 1, Treatment 2

Examples of labelled alternatives of different types ...

Re: D-efficient design for pilot phase

Thank you so much Prof. Michiel,

I adjust the syntax using the same prior for both alternative:
Design
;alts = A*, B*, Neither
;rows = 12
;eff = (mnl,d)
;cond:
if(A.item=0, A.profit=0), if(B.item=0, B.profit=0)
;model:
U(A) = b1[-0.0554615] * profit[0,3,6]
+ b2[0.0538509] * item[0,3,6]
+ b3.dummy ...

Re: D-efficient design for pilot phase

There is no need to use the modified Federov algorithm since the default swapping algorithm also automatically avoids dominant alternatives between A and B. The swapping algorithm has as benefit that it maintains attribute level balance.

I also fixed two small errors in your script, namely I ...

D-efficient design for pilot phase

Hi all,

I hope you are doing well. I am a Ph.D. student. I am currently doing a DCE as part of my Ph.D. In my DCE I have 6 attributes, each has 3 levels, and 3 alternatives (including the optout option).

Profit (0%, 3%, 6%)
Item sold (0%, 5%, 10%)
Ease of implementation (easy, natural, hard ...
