METHODS, TRENDS AND CONTROVERSIES IN CONTEMPORARY BENEFIT TRANSFER (2009, unknown): “economics literature illustrates that different auction or preference elicitation mechanisms provide different economic incentives and elicit different behaviors (Poe et al., 2002; Braga and Starmer, 2005), and that similar behavioral anomalies manifest in both actual and hypothetical markets (Batem”
Willingness to pay for a Green Energy program: A comparison of ex-ante and ex-post hypothetical bias mitigation approaches (2007, unknown): “Respondents were then described the policy implementation rule that includes the provision point design to minimize free riding (Poe et al. 2002; Rose et al. 2002): " If you signed up for the green energy program and were not satisfied you could cancel the program at any time.”
Eliciting Willingness to Pay Without Bias: Evidence from a Field Experiment (2008, unknown): “Similar results using a certainty scale were also found by Ethier et al. (2000), Champ and Bishop (2001), Poe et al. (2002) and Vossler et al. (2003).2 A drawback of using a scale to assess certainty is that it is necessary to estimate the cut-off level of certainty at which a hypothetical decision…”
VCM or PPM? A comparison of the performance of two voluntary public goods mechanisms (2005, methodology): “…features were added to the PPM to suit the prior objective of providing an alternative to the Champ et al. VCM that would be more effective in eliciting voluntary contributions in field situations (we later implemented a similar PPM in a field experiment—see Rose et al., 2002 and Poe et al., 2002).”
Understanding Hypothetical Bias: An Enhanced Meta‐Analysis (2018, background): “For example, Ethier et al. (2000), Poe et al. (2002), and Cameron et al. (2002) appear to all be based on the same data.”
Contemporary Guidance for Stated Preference Studies (2017, background): “Approaches such as provision point mechanisms have been shown to improve the demand-revealing properties of voluntary donations and other mechanisms that are not incentive compatible (Marwell and Ames 1980; Alston and Nowell 1996; Rondeau, Schulze, and Poe 1999; Poe et al. 2002; Rose et al. 2002).”
A Meta-analysis of Hypothetical Bias in Stated Preference Valuation (2005, unknown): “Ex post, or statistical calibration techniques, on the other hand, recognize that responses are biased and attempt to control for it using lab experiments to calibrate field data (Fox et al. 1998) or uncertainty adjustments (Champ et al. 1997; Poe et al. 2002 ).”
Helping "light green" consumers walk the talk: Results of a behavioural intervention survey in the Swiss electricity market (2011, background): “Clark et al. (2003), Hansla et al. (2007), Kotchen andMoore (2007), Poe et al. (2002), and Rose et al. (2002) point to strategic and psychological determinants of WTP for green electricity and actual purchase, including altruistic motivations, environmental awareness and self-transcendence values,…”
Using Respondent Uncertainty to Mitigate Hypothetical Bias in a Stated Choice Experiment (2010, background): “…that best mitigates hypothetical bias is at the very the top of the certainty scale (Blomquist, Blumenschein, and Johannesson 2008; Champ et al. 1997), others have found that a somewhat lower threshold works best (Champ and Bishop 2001; Ethier et al. 2000; Vossler et al. 2003; Poe et al. 2002).”
