Abstract

Choice experiments method has important advantages over other environmental valuation methods, such as contingent valuation. The most important one is the possibility to assess complex goods like multi-purpose lakes. Mixed logit allows to account for taste heterogeneity among population, extending Choice experiments skill. This study is an application of Choice Experiments to Lake Montedoglio (Tuscany). Both Mixed Logit and Latent Class models are used.
