The effectiveness of private benefits in fundraising of local charities
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an empirical analysis of the role that private benefits play in explaining charitable donations to large cultural and environmental organizations and develop a multiple discrete choice model with differentiated products.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of environmental recall and carbon taxation on the carbon footprint of supermarket shopping
TL;DR: The authors used an incentive-compatible experimental online supermarket to assess whether prior environmentally-friendly behaviour outside the store and carbon taxes motivate sustainable consumption, and found that being required to recall past environmentallyfriendly behaviour before shopping led consumers to purchase more sustainable food baskets.

Price Elasticity of Groundwater Demand: Attenuation and Amplification Bias Due to Incomplete Information
Taro Mieno,Nicholas Brozovic +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine estimation bias in the price elasticity of groundwater consumption for irrigated agriculture on the intensive margin, and find evidence of substantial measurement errors resulting in attenuation and amplification bias.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy efficiency programs in the context of increasing block tariffs: The case of residential electricity in Mexico
TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate the residential electricity demand and use the corresponding structural parameter estimates to simulate an energy efficiency improvement scenario, as suggested by the Energy Transition Law of December 2015, which consists of a massive replacement of electric appliances (air conditioners, fans, refrigerators, washing machines, and light-bulbs) for more energy-efficient units.

Sample Selection Bias as a Specification Error
TL;DR: In this article, the bias that results from using non-randomly selected samples to estimate behavioral relationships as an ordinary specification error or "omitted variables" bias is discussed, and the asymptotic distribution of the estimator is derived.
Journal Article
Modeling the choice of residential location
TL;DR: The problem of translating the theory of economic choice behavior into concrete models suitable for analyzing housing location and methods for controlling the size of data collection and estimation tasks by sampling alternatives from the full set of alternatives are discussed.

An Econometric Analysis of Residential Electric Appliance Holdings and Consumption
Jeffrey A. Dubin,Daniel McFadden +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a subsample of the 1975 survey of 3249 households carried out by the Washington Center for Metropolitan Studies (WCMS) for the Federal Energy Administration for the purpose of testing the statistical exogeneity of appliance dummy variables typically included in demand for electricity equations.

Urban travel demand - a behavioral analysis
T A Domencich,Daniel McFadden +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors integrate economic concepts of supply and demand equilibrium for urban activities using the concept of traffic equilibrium within transportation networks and describe the cutting edge in travel demand analysis using the latest methods.
