Testing geographical framing and substitution effects in spatial choice experiments
One of the main challenges in modelling spatial choices is the complexity resulting from the availability of multiple alternatives at different geographical scales. This study aims to test geographical framing and substitution effects in stated choice experiments by first increasing and subsequently reducing the geographical scale and associated set of choice alternatives in the experiment. Geo...
متن کاملModel Specification and Spatial Interdependence∗
Researchers now regularly estimate spatial models in applied political science, both to enhance the validity of their “direct” (i.e., non-spatial) covariate effect estimates and to test explicitly spatial theories. While this is a welcome advance over past practices, we worry that much of this first generation of applied spatial research overlooks certain aspects of spatial models. In particula...
متن کاملSocial choice and electoral competition in the general spatial model
This paper extends the theory of the core, the uncovered set, and the related undominated set to a general set of alternatives and an arbitrary measure space of voters. We investigate the properties of social preferences generated by simple games, we extend results on generic emptiness of the core, we prove the general nonemptiness of the uncovered and undominated sets, and we prove the upper h...
متن کاملThe Spatial Model and Speci cation of Choice Models
The spatial model has been in use in political science for close to 30 years, and in that period it has achieved a place of prime importance as our paradigm of the process of candidatechoice used by voters. For much of this time political scientists have estimated models of candidatechoice using binary logit or probit, even in cases where there were more than two choices facing voters. Recently...
متن کاملModel Specification in the Analysis of Spatial Dependence
The recent surge in studies analyzing spatial dependence in political science has gone hand in hand with increased attention paid to the choice of estimation technique. In comparison, specification choice has been largely neglected, even though it leads to equally, if not more, important inference problems. In this article we discuss four issues. Two pitfalls can simply be avoided if researcher...
