Abstract

Experimental methods are central to assessments of environmental valuation approaches that are operationally meaningful. Existing lab experiments focus attention sharply on the neglect of hypothetical bias. They also offer constructive solutions to correct this bias, and beg for validation in field experiments.

Keywords: Hypothetical bias, contingent valuation, experiments

JEL Classification: Q26, C91
