Is Cheap Talk Effective at Eliminating Hypothetical Bias in a Provision Point Mechanism? (2005, background): “Conversely, Aadland and Caplan (2003) find that a short cheap talk script was effective.”
Willingness to pay for a Green Energy program: A comparison of ex-ante and ex-post hypothetical bias mitigation approaches (2007, unknown): “Blumenschein et al. (1998), Blumenschein et al. (2001), and Blumenschein et al. (in press) consider only those respondents who indicate they are ‘‘definitely sure’’ about payment (the other category is ‘‘probably sure’’). They find that hypothetical willingness to pay is no different than actual wil”
Testing the Effectiveness of Certainty Scales, Cheap Talk, and Dissonance-Minimization in Reducing Hypothetical Bias in Contingent Valuation Studies (2009, background): “For example, Aadland and Caplan (2006) use a script they call cheap talk that warns generally of bias without suggesting the direction of the bias.”
Using Choice Experiments to Value Non-Market Goods and Services: Evidence from Field Experiments (2006, background): “For example, it has been shown that cheap talk is successful at eliminating hypothetical bias in a referendum for public goods (Cummings and Taylor, 1999) but ineffective with more experienced market participants (List, 2001; Aadland and Caplan, 2003).”
What's to Know About Hypothetical Bias in Stated Preference Valuation Studies? (2011, unknown): “for certain types of respondents (Blumenschein et al., 2008, p. 130). In particular Champ et al. (2009) and Blumenschein et al.”
Augmenting short Cheap Talk scripts with a repeated Opt-Out Reminder in Choice Experiment surveys (2014, result): “Similar to Aadland and Capland (2003), Bulte et al.”
Cheap Talk Reconsidered: New Evidence From CVM (2006, background): “Although the modified script is more general in the sense of not reporting the magnitude of hypothetical bias, it still informs the subjects that the bias is positive. waste going to landfills (Andreoni 1990).”
2013WAEA Keynote Address: Strategies for Overcoming Hypothetical Bias in Stated Preference Surveys (2014, background): “Cummings and Taylor found this approach successful in the lab (to obtain hypothetical WTP equal to actual) as have some others (Aadland and Caplan, 2003; Landry and List, 2007).”
Contingent Valuation, Hypothetical Bias, and Experimental Economics (2004, background): “Conversely, Aadland and Caplan (2003) reported their use of a short cheap talk script was effective.”
Behavioral change for the circular economy: A review with focus on electronic waste management in the EU (2020, background): “Hypothetical bias is also a pronounced issue, which suggest that the WTP preference may vary between hypothetical and real settings but findings are not conclusive (Aadland and Caplan, 2003; Carlsson and Martinsson, 2001).”
Explaining Disparities between Actual and Hypothetical Stated Values: Further Investigation Using Meta-Analysis (2004, background): “(2002); Bhatia and Fox-Rushby, (2003); Paradiso and Trisorio, (2001); Aadland and Caplan, (2003); Brown et al.”
Hypothetical bias in stated choice experiments: Part II. Macro-scale analysis of literature and effectiveness of bias mitigation methods (2021, background): “…in CV studies although evidence is not unanimous and its effectiveness has been shown to depend on factors such as the length of the script (Aadland and Caplan, 2003; Aadland and Caplan, 2006), the description of (the direction of) the bias (Aadland and Caplan, 2006), subject…”
Revisiting Cheap Talk with New Evidence from a Field Experiment (2011, methodology): “For example, Aadland and Caplan’s (2006) results using contingent-valuation method draw into question cheap talk’s effectiveness as an ex-ante correction tool for hypothetical bias.”
