This study tests the stability of willingness to pay (WTP) for recreational fishing over two decades based on three rounds of a representative angler survey conducted in New York State in 1988, 1996, and 2007. We employ the travel cost method (TCM) by using the repeated conditional logit and mixed logit models to estimate demand for daily fishing trips. Our estimates suggest that anglers’ WTP for fishing in 1988 and 1996 were similar, with values per trip at $35.2 and $36.4, respectively. However, there was a noticeable decrease in WTP, to $30.6, in 2007. This decrease is consistent with two salient features of the 2007 survey: (1) long-distance trips, such as those to the Great Lakes were less frequent, and (2) anglers were, on average, older than in previous surveys.

探索旅行费用的保质期,以评估娱乐转移收益的方法

这项研究基于1988年,1996年和2007年在纽约州进行的三轮代表性钓鱼者调查,测试了二十年来休闲钓鱼支付意愿(WTP)的稳定性。我们采用旅行成本法(TCM)使用重复的有条件logit和混合logit模型来估计日常捕鱼行程的需求。我们的估计表明,钓鱼者在1988年和1996年的捕捞WTP相似,每次旅行的价值分别为35.2美元和36.4美元。但是,WTP在2007年显着下降,降至30.6美元。这一下降与2007年调查的两个显着特征是一致的:(1)长途旅行,例如去大湖区的旅行次数较少,并且( 2)钓鱼者平均比以前的调查年龄大。
