本文在享乐财产价值模型的背景下,对环境质量的客观、科学测量与从调查信息中获得的个人感知的主观测量进行了检验和比较。具体应用是缅因州淡水湖的水清澈度。非嵌套 J 检验结果表明,在解释销售价格变化时,水透明度的客观测量方法要么优于或同等优于主观测量方法。这些结果对于采用科学的环境质量测量的享乐应用来说是有希望的,但是这些结果对其他环境设施的鲁棒性,当然还需要更复杂的环境质量测量。 (JEL Q25)
This paper examines and compares objective, scientific measures of environmental quality with subjective measures of individuals’ perceptions obtained from survey information within the context of hedonic property value models. The specific application is to water clarity of freshwater lakes in Maine. Non-nested, J-test results indicate that the objective measure of water clarity was either preferred, or equally preferred, to the subjective measure for explaining variation in sale prices. These results are promising for hedonic applications employing scientific measures of environmental quality, however robustness of these results to other environmental amenities, and more complex environmental quality measuresare of course needed.
