Abstract

Zusammenfassung Kaufentscheidungen sind häufig dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass Konsumenten im Vorfeld nicht sicher sein können, was für eine Qualität sie bekommen. Diese Unsicherheit wird bislang in Conjoint-Analysen als populärster Methode zur Messung von Konsumentenpräferenzen nicht berücksichtigt. Hierdurch kann es zu erheblichen Verzerrungen bei der Ermittlung von Gesamtnutzenwerten für alternative Angebote und somit bei der Prognose von Wahlanteilen und der Schätzung von Response-funktionen kommen. Der Beitrag stellt ein Verfahren vor, mit dem die Ergebnisse von Conjoint-Analysen um Unsicherheitsaspekte korrigiert werden können und verdeutlicht in einer empirischen Studie das Ausmaß des vermuteten „Unsicherheits-Bias“ herkömmlicher Ansätze.
