This is accomplished by linking engineering-based life cycle analysis of the fuels with choice analysis techniques for eliciting and understanding social preferences for multi-attribute consumption vectors. The use of life cycle data allows for a unique accounting of a broad range of environmental, natural resource, and health effects over the entire production and consumption life cycle of each transportation fuel. Combining these life cycle and stated choice analyses allows for social preferences to be established for the externalities resulting from the use of the different transportation fuels. This results in a unique model allowing for improved valuation of alternative fuel options and fuel policy design. The analysis is extended through the estimation of individual level preference parameters; allowing parameter, marginal price and total willingness-to-pay distributions to be derived from the individual level estimates. This creates a unique opportunity to test restrictions associated with traditional logit models used in discrete choice and welfare analysis, as well as compare parameter and welfare results across the two modeling frameworks. 2012-08-24 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1343325594 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1343325594 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
