 Abstract

Context-dependent stated choice experiments request participants to make choices between choice alternatives assuming that a certain context applies. This requires the construction of two experiments: a regular experiment with choice alternatives and a context experiment that varies the context variables. These are then combined by nesting the choice alternatives under the context descriptions. This extended SC experiment allows to examine how parameters estimated for attributes vary with context conditions. This approach is illustrated with an application that examines the impact of context of trip-circumstances on the parameters estimated for (multi-modal) mode attributes and alternative specific constants. It is argued that this approach is convenient to study evacuation choices.
