- The value of a statistical life (2009, unknown): “The same aid has been used in other studies with less success (Jones-Lee et al., 1985; Persson et al., 2001; Andersson, 2007).”
- Context and the VSL: Evidence from a Stated Preference Study in Italy and the Czech Republic (2011, background): “Third and last, the willingness to pay of individuals to reduce road traffic fatality risks has been extensively studied in other countries, such as the U.K. (Jones-Lee, 1989), Sweden (Johannesson et al., 1996b; Persson et al., 2001) and the US (e.g., Atkinson and Halvorsen, 1990) using both stated ”
- The value of a Statistical Life under Ambiguity Aversion (2010, background): “Some empirical evidence that the VSL increases with the baseline risk may be found in Horowitz and Carson (1993) and Persson et al. (2001). Notice that the dead-anyway effect can be potentially important in magnitude for a large baseline risk 0 p .”
- Urban Environmental Health and Sensitive Populations: How Much Are the Italians Willing to Pay to Reduce Their Risks? (2007, result): “This result is in line with earlier studies (e.g., Alberini et al., 2004a; Alberini, forthcoming, using data from Persson et al., 2001). the 10% level, but not at the 5% level.”
- Willingness to Pay to Reduce Mortality Risks: Evidence from a Three-Country Contingent Valuation Study (2006, background): “Jones-Lee et al. (1976), Johannesson et al. (1997), and Persson et al. (2001) empirically find a quadratic relationship between age and WTP.”
- The value of mortality risk reductions in Delhi, India (2006, unknown): “…were asked how much they would pay for a safer coach ride (Jones-Lee et al., 1985) or for a hypothetical safety device worn by drivers or passengers that would reduce the risk of dying in a road traffic accident by a specified level or percentage (Johannesson et al., 1996; Persson et al., 2001).”
