In support.BWS3: Tools for Case 3 Best-Worst Scaling

Description Details Author(s) References

Provides basic functions that support an implementation of Case 3 (multi-profile case) best-worst scaling.

Case 3 (multi-profile case) best-worst scaling (BWS) is a question-based survey method to elicit people's preferences for attribute levels. A Case 3 BWS question consists of three or more profiles. Each profile has two or more attributes and each attribute has two or more levels. Respondents are asked to select the best and worst profiles for each question. Analyzing the responses to the questions reveals the people's preferences for the attribute levels. Refer to Hensher et al. (2015), Lancsar et al. (2013), Louviere et al. (2015), and Marley and Pihlens (2012) for details.
