本文介绍了估计的价值统计生活（VSL）在泰国农村使用的或有价值（CV）的方法。这些估计数用于对排雷工作进行经济分析。据估计，250，000美元的VSL表明，排雷所挽救的生命价值至少比现有研究中使用的价值高出一个数量级。(c)2006爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
This paper presents estimates of the value of statistical life (VSL) in rural Thailand using the contingent-valuation (CV) method. These estimates are applied to an economic analysis of landmine clearance. The estimated VSL of US$250,000 suggests that the value of lives saved from landmine clearance is at least an order of magnitude greater than the values used in existing studies.
