This study aimed to investigate the influences of alternative similarity and scale variation in combining multiple data sets. The structure of nested logit was frequently used to merge revealed preference and stated preference data sets in previous literatures. Howeνer, it could not identify the scale variation across mode alternatives. Hence, this study proposed error components logit model to combine multiple data sets and to explore the effects of alternative similarity and scale variation. Empirical results revealed that the proposed model could not only identify the scale difference across modes, but also explore alternative similarity among modes. The result of data scale indicates that the variation of stated preference is higher than revealed preference and the νariation of private transportation is higher than public transportation. Furthermore the choice set of mode alternatiνes could be segmented into two competitive groups: private mode (motorcycle and car) and public mode (bus and light rail transit). |
