Measuring angling quality in count data models of recreational fishing

Jeffrey Englin and David Lambert

Environmental & Resource Economics, 1995, vol. 6, issue 4, 389-399

Abstract: This paper develops a methodology for investigating different specifications of angling quality in recreational demand models. The methodology is used to compare three alternative specifications of the relationship between angling demand and site quality. The site quality alternatives include chemical concentrations, biological stress indices based on the chemicals, and catch per unit effort. The three alternatives are differentiated using a likelihood ratio non-nested testing procedure. Copyright Kluwer Academic Publishers 1995
