The primary objective of this study was to estimate the willingness to pay (WTP) for a new intervention at the workplace: wholesome canteen takeaways (CTA), i.e. a low fat meal with a large amount of vegetables prepared at the workplace canteen that only requires re-heating. The contingent valuation method was used to elicit the WTP. Two surveys were carried out in Denmark; one large-scale Internet based survey and one survey at a workplace that introduced CTA. The results from the large-scale survey suggest that this concept attracts relevant target groups; groups of individuals with a less healthy diet, low physical activity and a high body mass index. For males and individuals with low education, who also constitute relevant target groups, the results suggest no significant difference in WTP between males and females, whereas low educated individuals have a significantly lower WTP than highly educated individuals. However, the workplace study, carried out at a hospital, found that females have a significantly higher WTP for CTA compared with males. In conclusion, the concept appears to attract relevant target groups, although for a given price a smaller fraction of low educated individuals compared to high educated individuals would be willing to buy CTA.

“…In contrast to the MNL model, in ordered-response models auto-ownership level is considered as an ordinal scale (Y 0, 1, 2, F F F , j, F F F , J ). This assumes an underlying latent continuous variable, Y Ã , representing a household's propensity to own cars (Daykin and Moffatt, 2002). Y Ã is expressed in the following form:…”

IntroductionAuto ownership has a strong influence on travel behavior, as countless studies show. Most travel-demand forecasting models, widely used in regional transportation planning, incorporate auto ownership as a key variable for predicting trip generation and mode split. Even though households without automobiles often rely on the automobiles of others for their daily travel, the correlation between auto ownership and travel by automobile is strong. According to the 2001 National Household Travel Survey, households without a vehicle made 34.1% of their trips by auto, 19.1% by transit, and 43.5% by nonmotorized modes; in contrast, households with one vehicle made 81.9% of their trips by automobile and households with three or more vehicles made 90.5% of

“…Since it is measured on ordinal scales, we develop ordered models (refer to Daykin and Moffatt 2002 for an introduction to ordered probit model). Again, since riders rate conventional bus, BRT, and metro simultaneously, their overall satisfactions are likely to be jointly influenced by unobserved factors (such as their intrinsic affection toward transit), which are captured by error terms.…”

This paper explores transit riders' satisfaction with bus rapid transit (BRT) and compares BRT with conventional bus and metro services using revealed preference data from Guangzhou, China. A trivariate ordered probit model is developed to examine the effects of various service attributes on riders' overall satisfactions with the three types of transit. We find that the top-three influential attributes for satisfaction with BRT are ease of use, safety while riding, and comfort while waiting. Moreover, transit riders are most satisfied with metro, followed by BRT and conventional bus. The top-five attributes that contribute to the difference in the overall satisfaction between BRT and metro are ease of use, comfort while riding, convenience of service, travel time, and comfort while waiting. Based on the findings, we propose specific strategies that can be used to enhance BRT quality of service.
