Cities in Developing Countries: Fueled by Rural–Urban Migration, Lacking in Tenure Security, and Short of Affordable Housing (2015, background): “Empirical work on valuation of services relies on contingent valuation (Cameron (1992), Whittington (2002)), conjoint and discrete-choice analysis (Earnhart (2002)), and estimation of hedonic models (Chattopadhyay, 1999, Malpezzi, 2003, and Palmquist, 2005).”
The importance of deliberation in valuing ecosystem services in developing countries - evidence from the Solomon Islands (2011, background): “…hypothetical scenarios (Whittington, 1998); lack of local research capacity for implementing complex techniques (Alam, 2006; Christie et al., 2008; Whittington, 1998, 2002); and assumptions by researchers that participants have similar ways of thinking as they do (Alam, 2006; Christie et al.,…”
