Session Goal

The session aimed to develop educational materials and insights related to nested logit models in transportation and Difference-in-Differences (DiD) regression analysis.

Key Activities

  • Nested Logit Models: Reviewed essential topics and recommended textbooks for mastering nested logit models, focusing on transportation decision-making.
  • DiD Regression Problem Design: Outlined a step-by-step approach to create a calculation-based problem for DiD regression, including sample data and questions.
  • DiD Error Analysis: Presented DiD estimates with errors to challenge students in identifying mistakes and enhance error complexity.
  • Investment Analysis: Analyzed investment options using Expected Utility Theory (EUT) and Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT).
  • Feedback on Dynamic Decision-Making: Provided feedback on dynamic decision-making problems, emphasizing backward induction.

Achievements

  • Developed comprehensive guides and templates for nested logit models and DiD regression problems.
  • Analyzed investment options, concluding Asset B as preferred.
  • Enhanced educational materials with error analysis and feedback.

Pending Tasks

  • Further refinement of DiD problem sets to include more complex error scenarios.
  • Additional feedback and iteration on dynamic decision-making exercises.
