Discrete choice experiments in a nutshell

Since their introduction in health economics in the early 1990s, research in the area of health care benefits valuation has seen an increased interest in the use of discrete choice experiments (DCEs). This is shown by the explosion of literature applying this technique to direct evaluation of different policy-relevant attributes of health care interventions as well as to look at other issues such as understanding labour supply characteristics, time preferences or uptake or demand forecasting
