Abstract: This paper extends our understanding of variety seeking behaviour, in general, and McAlister's dynamic attribute satiation (DAS) model, in particular. Detailed analysis of the DAS model — both descriptive and methodological is provided. First, a mathematical analysis based on hypothetical examples is provided to examine the qualitative properties of the model. Second, an estimation method for purchase data is proposed and tested using Monte‐Carlo simulations. This method, by estimating the retention parameter for the first time, has enabled us to differentiate stochastic (random) switching from switching due to satiation (variety‐seeking). © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
