In this study we assess the ability of the Marine Recreational Fishery Statistics Survey (MRFSS) to support single-species recreation demand models. We use the 2000 MRFSS southeast intercept data combined with the economic add-on. We determine that the MRFSS data will support only a few species-specific recreation demand models. Considering species of management interest in the southeast, we fo...

NRI point data. The model tilizes modern land use theory based on the land rent theory. In addition to the returns, we ey words: land use change, property tax, discrete choice, nested logit, Louisiana.

mlogit is a package for R which enables the estimation the multinomial logit models with individual and/or alternative specific variables. The main extensions of the basic multinomial model (heteroscedastic, nested and random parameter models) are implemented.

Motivated by an application in assortment planning under the nested logit choice model, we develop a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the sum-of-ratios optimization problem with a capacity constraint and a fixed number of product groups.

This paper (and the large study behind it) was in some ways a labor of love. We set out to build a discrete choice model to predict recreational fishing behavior that would extend the literature along several dimensions. our interest in doing so stemmed from earlier work that we were individually or collectively involved in. hanemann’s dissertation (1978)1 suggested the power of the discrete ch...

This paper is the first to apply a nested logit model to measure the probabilities of speculative attacks and the probabilities of successful defenses by the central banks. This model allows us to predict not only the probability of speculative attacks but also the probability of successful defenses given attacks. Also, it provides a framework to analyze the degree to which different factors af...
