Abstract:

In this paper we review choice experiments, methods for analysis of data from choice experiments, and common strategies for creating choice experiment designs. Next, we discuss a specific case study where two unsuspected interactions were discovered that provided much additional insight. We document the specific choice experiment design and method of data analysis that allowed the discovery of these interactions. Finally, we comment on the applicability of this design and analysis strategy to other choice experiments.
