This paper investigates the prevalence of observed and unobserved taste heterogeneity
influencing shippers' mode choice behaviour. The study is based on stated preference data …

In this paper we show that individual attitudes of road carriers and their latent preferences
toward specific freight service attributes do play a role in determining their mode choices …

This paper describes a study to improve understanding of the decision-making process of
New Zealand firms, freight shippers and agents when making freight transport mode choice …

In this paper we use advanced choice modelling techniques to analyse demand for freight
transport in a context of modal choice. To this end, a stated preference (SP) survey was …

This paper discusses the differences between Multinomial Logit, Random Coefficients Mixed
Logit and Latent Class Choice models in terms of taste heterogeneity, correlation between …

We use stated preference data to analyze modal choice for freight transport when
information about attribute cut-offs is introduced into the utility specification. Different choice …

Transport policy aims to assist the transport system to work more efficiently and effectively.
An understanding of the reasons why people choose to move freight in a certain manner is …

The research aims to estimate the relative importance and value for freight shippers of
transport qualitative factors: service frequency, transport time, reliability of delivery, carrier's …

Latent class models are a convenient and intuitive way to introduce taste heterogeneity in
discrete choice models by relating attributes of the decision makers with unobserved …

This paper analyzes the freight demand characteristics that drive modal choice by means of
a large scale, national, disaggregate revealed preference database for shippers in France in …
