Abstract:

Inspired by the interactive discrete choice logit models [Aggarwal, 2019], this paper presents the advanced families of discrete choice models, such as nested logit, mixed logit, and probit models to consider the interaction among the attributes. Besides the DM's attitudinal character is also taken into consideration in the computation of choice probabilities. The proposed choice models make use of Choquet integal and the recent attitudinal Choquet integral. The models are termed as Choquet nested logit (CNL), Choquet mixed multinomial logit (CMMNL), and Choquet multinomial probit (CMP). These are further extended to represent the DM's attitudinal character, and termed as attitudinal CNL, attitudinal CMMNL, and attitudinal CMP.

An illustration of Cox's non-nested testing procedure for logit and probit models

We discuss some empirical and methodological issues arising when the Cox test statistic for non-nested models is used to test the probit vs. logit specifications. As an example, we consider the models in Bardasi and Monfardini (1997) for the occupational choice by Italian workers among the private, public and self-employed options. Different versions of the test are compared. The bootstrap tech...

I nteraction terms in logit and probit models

The magnitude of the interaction effect in nonlinear models does not equal the marginal effect of the interaction term, can be of opposite sign, and its statistical significance is not calculated by standard software. We present the correct way to estimate the magnitude and standard errors of the interaction effect in nonlinear models.  2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Probit and Logit Models: Differences in the Multivariate Realm

Current opinion regarding the selection of link function in binary response models is that the probit and logit links give essentially similar results. This seems to be true for univariate binary response models; however, for multivariate binary response models such advice is misleading. We address a gap in the literature by empirically examining the relationship between link function selection...

Comparing Three Commonly Used Crash Severity Models on Sample Size Requirements: Multinomial Logit, Ordered Probit and Mixed Logit Models

There have been many studies that have documented the application of crash severity models to explore the relationship between accident severity and its contributing factors. Although a large amount of work has been done on different types of models, no research has been conducted about quantifying the sample size requirements for crash severity modeling. Similar to count data models, small dat...

TWO RUMs unCLOAKED: Nested-Logit Models of Site Choice and Nested-Logit Models of Participation and Site Choice

Nested logit is increasingly advocated as a tool of recreational demand and benefit estimation. The intent of this short monograph is to lay out, in a simple fashion, the theory behind the nested-logit model of site choice and the nested-logit model of participation and site choice. Rigorous but straightforward derivations of the properties of nested-logit models are provided, including the pro...

On the Equivalence of Location Choice Models: Conditional Logit, Nested Logit and Poisson

It is well understood that the two most popular empirical models of location choice conditional logit and Poisson return identical coefficient estimates when the regressors are not individual specific. We show that these two models differ starkly in terms of their implied predictions. The conditional logit model represents a zero-sum world, in which one region's gain is the other regions' loss....
