Modelling intermodal traveller behaviour in mega-city regions: Simultaneous versus sequential estimation frameworks

Keeping heritage relevant at a generational crossroad: Designing a choice experiment across local and global dimensions at a National Trust site
Open AccessGloria Amaris, Stephane Hess et al.ARTICLEJournal of Heritage Tourism2026References: 1
Heritage is at a generational crossroad, caught between preservation and reinvention, between the weight of history and the demands of an interconnected present. Heritage valuation has relied on straightforward measures, such as admission fees, visitor numbers, overlooking the broader cultural meanings that shape engagement across generations. This paper presents a stated preference survey enabling heritage research to deploy choice modelling in …

Temporal stability of preferences: The case of Covid-19 vaccines in Australia and New Zealand
Open AccessMy Tran, R Maris et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2025References: 25
This paper introduces a novel two-level Latent Class (LC) structure to investigate the temporal stability of preferences, allowing individuals to switch classes over time. The model is used to investigate the temporal stability of COVID-19 vaccine preferences in Australia (AUS) and New Zealand (NZ) during 2020-2021. Through online experiments on vaccine choices, stated choice data is collected across three waves from the general population in bot…
Handbook of Choice Modelling: Second Edition
Stephane Hess, Andrew DalyBOOKHandbook of Choice Modelling2024
Choice modelling is an increasingly important technique for forecasting and valuation, with applications in fields such as transportation, health and environmental economics. For this reason it has attracted attention from leading academics and practitioners and methods have advanced substantially in recent years. This Handbook, composed of contributions from senior figures in the field, summarises the essential analytical techniques and discusse…
Uncovering the link between intra-individual heterogeneity and variety seeking: The case of new shared mobility
Open AccessFengxiang Song, Stephane Hess et al.ARTICLETransportation2024
Preferences can vary both across respondents (i.e. inter-respondent preference heterogeneity) and across choice tasks within respondents (i.e. intra-respondent preference heterogeneity). Ignoring the existence of intra-respondent preference heterogeneity could bias preference elicitation and demand forecast. Thus far, most studies covering inter- and intra-respondent preference heterogeneity have applied the mixed multinomial logit model. Meanwhi…
Probabilistic choice set formation incorporating activity spaces into the context of mode and destination choice modelling
Open AccessPanagiotis Tsoleridis, Charisma F Choudhury et al.ARTICLEJournal of Transport Geography2023Cited by: 1References: 5
Understanding the constraints that individuals face during their spatial choices is important from a policy perspective. Such constraints, however, are often overlooked in the choice set generation process during model development. In order to address that gap, the current study proposes a probabilistic choice set formation based on Manski's framework assuming that the actual choice set of an individual is latent (unobserved). Though latent class…

The path towards herd immunity: Predicting Covid-19 vaccination uptake through results from a stated choice study across six continents
Open AccessStephane Hess, Emily Lancsar et al.ARTICLESocial Science & Medicine2022Cited by: 4References: 50
Despite unprecedented progress in developing COVID-19 vaccines, global vaccination levels needed to reach herd immunity remain a distant target, while new variants keep emerging. Obtaining near universal vaccine uptake relies on understanding and addressing vaccine resistance. Simple questions about vaccine acceptance however ignore that the vaccines being offered vary across countries and even population subgroups, and differ in terms of efficac…

Getting the best of both worlds: A framework for combining disaggregate travel survey data and aggregate mobile phone data for trip generation modelling
Open AccessAndrew Bwambale, Charisma F Choudhury et al.ARTICLETransportation2021
Traditional approaches to travel behaviour modelling primarily rely on household travel survey data, which is expensive to collect, resulting in small sample sizes and infrequent updates. Furthermore, such data is prone to reporting errors which can lead to biased parameter estimates and subsequently incorrect predictions. On the other hand, mobile phone call detail records (CDRs), which report the timestamped locations of mobile communication ev…

New appraisal values of travel time saving and reliability in Great Britain
Open AccessRichard Batley, John Bates et al.ARTICLETransportation2019
This paper provides an overview of the study ‘Provision of market research for value of time savings and reliability’ undertaken by the Arup/ITS Leeds/Accent consortium for the UK Department for Transport (DfT). The paper summarises recommendations for revised national average values of in-vehicle travel time savings, reliability and time-related quality (e.g. crowding and congestion), which were developed using willingness-to-pay (WTP) methods, …
Understanding valuation of travel time changes: Are preferences different under different stated choice design settings
Open AccessManuel Ojeda-Cabral, Stephane Hess et al.ARTICLETransportation2018
Stated choice (SC) experiments are the most popular method to estimate the value of travel time changes (VTTC) of a population. In the simplest VTTC experiment, the SC design variables are time changes and cost changes. The levels of these variables create a particular setting from which preferences are inferred. This paper tries to answer the question "do preferences vary with SC settings?". For this, we investigate the role of the variables use…
A latent class model of residential choice behaviour and ethnic segregation preferences
Tatjana Ibraimovic, Stephane HessARTICLEHousing Studies2018Cited by: 5References: 43
The nature of ethnic residential clustering involves diverse population segments which through their location decisions influence the spatial patterns of ethnic settlements. While residential location is in part determined by outside constraints, choice plays a role too, making the study of preferences an important research topic. Along with differences in socio-economic characteristics, literature often emphasizes the role of unobserved (behavio…
