SINGLEB: Stata module to compute Contingent Valuation using Single-Bounded Dichotomous Choice

Alejandro Lopez-Feldman

Statistical Software Components from Boston College Department of Economics

Abstract: This command uses maximum likelihood (under the assumption of normality) to estimate the single-bounded dichotomous choice model for contingent valuation (Cameron and James, 1987). This command provides an alternative to the estimation via probit. The main advantage of this procedure is that we directly obtain point estimates (and standard errors) for the marginal effects of a change in the explanatory variable on the WTP.
