relative importance
an attribute is its share of the total change in utility possible across all attributes
importance weights
-an attribute's importance is relative to the other attributes
-a move from its worst level to its best level is the maximum impact that an attribute can have on overall utility
part-worth utilities
-the utility for a specific level of a particular attribute is called a respondent's part-worth (ex: how much is the "large" size box to me?)
-it designates how much that part of the product or service is worth (realtive to other levels and attributes) to the consumer
examples of attributes
-price (experimentation and conjoint are two excellent way to assess brand equity
-brand name (conjoint analysis is one excellent way to asses brand equity
-size
-performance ro other quality measures
attributes
an attribute may be any clrealy defined feature or characteristic
conjint procedures
attempt to assign values to the levels of each attribute so that the resulting values or utilities attached to teh stimuli match, as closely as possible, the input evaluations provided by the respondents
conjoint analysis
-attempts to determine the relative importance consumers attach to salient attributes and the utilities they attach to the levels of attributes
-the respondents are presented with stimuli that consistent of combinations of attribute levels and asked to evaluate these stimuli in terms of their desirability
multi-collinearity
is when your Xs are highly collinear with each other
-look at correlation matrix of Xs
-Regress on X on the other Xs (high R^2 indicates a problem)
-Solution: Do not include all of the Xs
correlation
measure of association between any two interval or ration scaled variables --> correlation coefficient
comparing t-test and critical value
if p-value < level of significance
--> reject the null
chi-square test (when to use)
-test for statistical independence between two nominal variables (the two variables are unrelated)
-example: gender (males & female) and internet usage (heavy, medium and light)
more than two means: ANOVA
-testing the mean for 3 or more for the same interval or ratio variable
-example: internet usage by different income levels/age groups/household sizes/marital status/edu levels/...
two sample means t-test
-testing the mean for two different groups for the same interval or ratio variable
-example: men's internet usage and women's internet usage
paired means t-test
-testing the mean for the same group for two different interval or ratio variables
-example: men's attitudes towards internet and men's attitude towards technology
single mean t-test
-testing the mean of a single variable against a number
-example: people's average evaluation ofa product (1-5 likert scale) vs. score 3
alternative hypothesis
one in which some difference or effect is expected
null hypothesis
a statement of the status quo, one of no difference or no effect. if the null hypothesis is not rejected, no changes will be made
chi square statistic formula
x^2 = (ni - E(ni))^2 / E(ni)

ni = observed number of obs in cell i
E(ni) = expected number of obs in cell i under hypothesis
chi-square statistic definition
a function of the squares of the deviation of the observed counts n form their expected values (under some null hypthesis), E(n), weighted by the reciprocals of their expected values
one-way chi-squared test
The Chi Square (X2) test is undoubtedly the most important and most used member of the nonparametric family of statistical tests. Chi Square is employed to test the difference between an actual sample and another hypothetical or previously established distribution such as that which may be expected due to chance or probability. Chi Square can also be used to test differences between two or more actual samples.
in pairwise deletion
intead of discarding all cases with any missing values, the researcher uses only the cases or respondents with complete responses for each calculation
in casewise deletion
cases, or respondents, with any missing responses are discarded from the analysis
substitute an imputed response
the respondents pattern of responses to other questions are used to impute or calculate a suitable response to the missing questions
substitute a neutral value
typically the mean response to the variable
treatment of missnig values
-substitute a neutral value
-substitute an imputed response
-in casewise deletion
-in pairwise deletion
consistency checks
identify data that are out of range, logically inconsistent, or have extreme values
