Abstract
As an alternative to the classical approach for analysing dichotomous choice environmental valuation data, this note develops a Bayesian approach by using the idea of Gibbs sampling and data augmentation. A by-product from the approach is a welfare measure, such as the mean willingness to pay, and its confidence interval, which can be used for policy analysis.
