Telecommuting and residential location decisions: combined stated and revealed preferences model
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper reports on a combined stated preference (SP) and revealed preference (RP) model for studying the effect of telecommuting on households’ residential location decisions. Logit models were developed to estimate the parameters of the utility function. The required data for the model estimation were collected in an attitudinal survey of employees of selected private and public organizations in the Ottawa–Carleton region. The RP information included respondents’ residential, employment, and socioeconomic characteristics. To obtain the SP responses, the respondents were presented with a number of hypothetical residential choice scenarios defined on the basis of SP experimental design. The sequential maximum likelihood estimation procedure was used to obtain taste parameters of the combined multinomial logit model. The empirical case study demonstrated practical application of the method. The hybrid model is a useful tool for urban development planning. On the basis of the results, it is concluded that telecommuting is a highly significant factor in residential location decisions.Key words: telecommuting, land use, residential location, modelling, urban development, stated preference, revealed preference.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
