Abstract

Data in Excel shreadsheet:
Download the data set in Excel MixModelData.xls Explanations are included in the file.

For Gauss Users:
Download the Gauss MaxLik program, Mixmodel.cmd, and data to estimate the mixture model in the 2003 paper.
Start with mixreadme.pdf
Then download Mixmodel.txt after downloading this file change its name to "Mixmodel.cmd". It is the Gauss command file. Your machine will not like downloading something with the suffix .cmd
and download the Gauss data files XMAT.fmt , YVEC.fmt and Times.fmt The files you download will have the prefix .txt. Change it to .fmt after the download.

If you use this data, please reference the above papers. Thanks.

If you have questions about the data set, please contact Kathleen Rossmann at KRossmann@BSC.edu

The data used to estimate the models in

Gaussian Quadrature versus Simulation for the Estimation of Random Parameters: Some Evidence from Stated Preference Recreational Choice Data, William S. Breffle, Edward R. Morey, and Donald M. Waldman. August 30, 2004
Abstract


forthcoming in Applications of Simulation Methods in Environmental and Resource Economics, A. Alberini and R. Scarpa, eds., Kluwer Academic Publisher
For Gauss Users:
Download the Gauss MaxLik program, r2abq10.cmd (2 random parameters, A-B choices, quadratrure with 10 eval points) to estimate the quadrature model.
Download the Gauss MaxLik program, r2abs1.cmd (2 random parameters, A-B choices, simulation with 1000 draws) to estimate the simulation model.
The files downloaded will have the suffix .tex - you will need to rename them to .cmd . Your system will typically not download a file with the suffix .cmd.


Then download the Gauss data files z.dat and x.dat .

The file bab.fmt is a file of starting values for the parameters: the parameter estimates for a simple A-B choice model with no random parameters.

For your convience we have also included the two output files: r2abq10.out and r2abs1000.out


If you use this data, please reference the above paper. Thanks.

If you have questions about the data set or programs, please contact Bill Breffle at bbreffle@stratusconsulting.com

Valuing a change in a fishing site without collecting charactristics data on all fishing sites: a complete but minimal model
March 05Edward Morey and B. Breffle
Abstract
forthcoming in the American Journal of Agricultural Economics

For Gauss Users:
The data files are the the same as for the Gaussian Quadrature vs Simulation paper. Download z2.dat and x.dat
Download the Gaus MakLik program abgbnp.cmd. It will have the suffix .txt. Your machine will not download a file with the suffix .cmd, so you will need to rename it.
The file babgbnp.fmt is a file of starting values
The file cabgnnp.fmt are is the converged var/cov matrix.
And, abgbnp.out is an output file.
