摘要:
It is widely accepted that the notion of utility or value is influenced by deviations from a reference point as proposed in prospect theory rather than the final state of outcomes. Many studies have been carried out to understand the role of reference point in decision making within various context. This paper aims to ascertain the role of reference point and the impact of a negative shift in reference point on the choice behaviours of Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) commuters in Singapore. Mixed logit and reference dependent utility specification were employed to model the choice behaviour of MRT commuters. The results confirm the loss aversion tendency for MRT commuters as well as behavioural changes when faced with negative shift in reference point. In particular, there was an increase in loss aversion for travel time and decrease in loss aversion for number of MRT delays.
