Abstract

This paper presents a comparison of willingness to pay (WTP) estimates generated from a dichotomous choice (DC) contingent valuation experiment and a choice experiment (CE). The study was conducted with subjects undergoing assisted reproductive techniques in the Grampian area of Scotland. Subjects first completed a DC WTP questionnaire. They were sent a CE questionnaire two months later. Welfare estimates for the DC WTP study and CE were not significantly different. Important research questions are raised concerning the validity of the various approaches to estimating WTP. Copyright ยฉ 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Cauchy principal value integrals are evaluated by the IMT quadrature scheme, which like the TANH quadrature scheme is essentially a trapezoidal scheme, after making a transformation of the variable of integration. Numerical results for some test problems demonstrate that the IMT scheme is superior t
