“…[Evidence on the likely scale of the attrition problem in such an area was rather scarce, but see the results of the Cardiff Consumer Panel Study of the early 1980s (Wrigley et al, 1985).] To obtain this size of sample in wave 1 in a highly deprived neighbourhood in which survey response rates have traditionally been low required us, in turn, to assume that we would need to establish initial contact with approximately 3000 households in the areaöthat is, that approximately two-thirds of the households contacted were likely to refuse to participate in what was a relatively time-consuming survey involving an implicit commitment to repeating the process one year on.…”

Abstract. Within a context of public policy debate in the United Kingdom on social exclusion, health inequalities, and food poverty, the metaphor of the`food desert' caught the imagination of those involved in policy development. Drawing from a major cross-disciplinary investigation of food access and food poverty in British cities, the authors report in this paper findings from the first`before/after' study of food consumption in a highly deprived area of a British city experiencing a sudden and significant change in its food-retail access. The study has been viewed as the first opportunity in the United Kingdom to assess the impact of a non-healthcare intervention (specifically a retail-provision intervention) on food-consumption patterns, and by extension diet-related health, in such a deprived, previously poor-retail-access community. The paper offers evidence of a positive but modest impact of the retail intervention on diet, and the authors discuss the ways in which their findings are potentially significant in the context of policy debate.

The movement of shoppers through a city can look chaotic when studied at the individual level. However, statistical analysis shows that aggregate patterns exist for major grocery shopping trips, patterns of movement largely depend on access to a car and how much is bought; for minor shopping trips, location/convenience tends to be the main consideration. Employs a statistical method -polythetic division of consumer panel data -which is highly flexible and able to handle large amounts of mixed data.

“…An example of the use of the beta-logistic model in spatial choice modelling is available in Dunn and Wrigley (1985) (see also Uncles, 1987, for a mode choice example, and Kennan, 1985, for an alternative use in labour economics). Dunn and Wrigley consider the choice of shopping centre (local or non-local) of a group of 126 households drawn from the Cardiff Consumer Panel (see Wrigley et al, 1985) and who live in two adjacent suburban areas of northeast Cardiff. Tables 1 and 2 and fig.…”

"This paper tackles the problem of handling uncontrolled heterogeneity due to unobserved influences on the decision process of spatial choice. It concentrates upon a discrete-time/'random-effects' approach to the problem of unobserved heterogeneity and documents parametric and non-parametric methods of specifying and estimating models which can cope with unobserved heterogeneity." The model is applied to data from Wales. (SUMMARY IN FRE)
