Consumer price evaluations through choice experiments (replication data)

Modeling category-level purchase timing with brand-level marketing variables ...
Purchase timing of households is usually modeled at the category level. However, many potential explanatory variables are observed at the brand level. To explain interpurchase... -
The price consideration model of brand choice (replication data)
The workhorse brand choice models in marketing are the multinomial logit (MNL) and nested multinomial logit (NMNL). These models place strong restrictions on how brand share and... -
A discrete-choice model with social interactions: with an application to high...
We develop an empirical discrete-choice interaction model with a finite number of agents. We characterize its equilibrium properties-in particular the correspondence between... -
Habits and heterogeneity in demands: a panel data analysis (replication data)
We examine demand behaviour for intertemporal dependencies, using Spanish panel data. We present evidence that there is both state dependence and correlated heterogeneity in... -
A segment-level hazard approach to studying household purchase timing decisio...
The increasing availability of customer-level data and the willingness of marketers to customize the timing of their offers to consumers makes the accurate segment-level... -
Intertemporal substitution in import demand and habit formation (replication ...
