spdesign: Designing Stated Preference Experiments
Dancke Sandorf E & Campbell D (2023) spdesign: Designing Stated Preference Experiments. 17.08.2023. https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=spdesign
I’m a professor of economics at the Economics Division of the University of Stirling Management School. I’m an environmental economist with a research focus on the economic valuation of environmental and natural resources. I also study preference elicitation for public health services, and food choice analysis. My research interests include behavioural and econometric aspects associated with people’s choices, such as decision rules, preference heterogeneity, experimental design and spatial issues.

CAVEAT - Triangulation of values using different valuation methods
CAVEAT is addressing the caveats associated with current valuation methods when applied to culture and heritage capital to inform decision making. The project is exploring how to best triangulate existing valuation techniques to assess the value of the stock (and flows) of a complex historic asset, such as a historic high street/neighbourhood, to improve decision makers’ confidence when using such results in social cost-benefit analysis. The project team encompasses expertise from various disciplines (architecture, urban planning, heritage conservation, cultural economics, environmental economics, heritage advocacy, policy making support) who have worked on these themes before and are committed to an interdisciplinary approach.
Restoration of Seagrass for Ocean Wealth UK (ReSOW UK)
The ReSOW UK project is generating a step-change in our understanding of the contribution of seagrass to the UK’s environmental security, economy and wellbeing. It is applying a holistic, systems-based approach which integrates understanding of environmental functioning with the various priorities of those who use, or benefit from, the coast. The project will inform interventions for the management of seagrass which align with local, national and international priorities, yet that are inclusive of the needs of multiple stakeholders and geared towards the long-term sustainability of coastal communities.
Exploring values for coastal heritage using stated choice experiments
The research will seek to capture intangible, non-use values of the conservation of coastal heritage sites that go beyond narrow notions of economic value of heritage sites (eg., locals and tourists). In addition to stated choice experiments, the project also involves web data mining, focus groups, interviews and surveys to explore the factors that shape people’s relationship with coastal heritage.
Discipline Hopping for Environmental Solutions
Interdisciplinary projects to explore various aspects of rewilding, nature restoration and the application of nature-based solutions. The projects explored perceptions, values, preferences and misconceptions about nature-based solutions and rewilding for delivering biodiversity and wellbeing benefits.
Valuing the benefits of blue/green infrastructure for flood resilience, natural capital and urban development in Viet Nam
Flooding affects millions of people globally every year. In Viet Nam, low-lying coastal cities, particularly in river deltas, face increased flood risk and vulnerability due to rapid urban development and climate change. The project sought to develop a multidisciplinary, stakeholder-informed assessment framework for the effectiveness of blue/green infrastructure, such as natural and man-made wetlands, vegetated river banks and restored floodplains, to reduce flood risk and provide additional benefits, such as controlling water pollutants, providing recreational opportunities, improving air quality and increasing resilience to other stressors, such as heat waves and noise pollution.
The Influence of Information Search on Preference Formation and Choice (INSPiRE)
Drawing on accumulating evidence from economics, psychology and marketing, the INSPiRE project aimed to understand how searching for information about policy alternatives affects stated preference formation, learning and choice, and the extent to which this can address hypothetical bias. The project developed a novel experimental procedure that advanced experimental design and data analysis.
spdesign: Designing Stated Preference Experiments
Contemporary software commonly used to design stated preference experiments are expensive and the code is closed source. This is a free software package with an easy to use interface to make flexible stated preference experimental designs using state-of-the-art methods.
