Using choice experiments to value the environment

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors outline the choice experiment approach to environmental valuation, which has its roots in Lancaster's characteristics theory of value, in random utility theory and in experimental design, and illustrate the use of choice experiments with reference to a recent UK study on public preferences for alternative forest landscapes.
