Discrete Choice Experiment
A discrete choice experiment (DCE) is a stated-preference method in which respondents repeatedly choose their preferred option from sets of alternatives described by systematically varied attributes, allowing the analyst to estimate how each attribute drives choice. Grounded in McFadden's random utility theory and operationalized for designed experiments by Louviere and Woodworth in 1983, the DCE treats each choice as the selection of the alternative with the highest latent utility and recovers the utility coefficients from observed choices. Because attributes are varied independently by experimental design, the method isolates the marginal effect of each attribute, including price, and yields marginal rates of substitution such as willingness to pay. DCEs are analyzed with multinomial (conditional) logit and, increasingly, with mixed and nested logit models that relax restrictive assumptions and capture preference heterogeneity. The approach is essentially the same machinery as choice-based conjoint but is the standard term in transport, health, and environmental economics, where it is used to value non-market goods. Its rigor and flexibility have made it a dominant stated-preference technique across the social sciences.
