| Tiivistelmä: | It has been argued that respondents in contingent valuation (CV) surveys, asked to value complex environmental (hereafter as: env-tal.) amenities, will state willingness to pay (WTP) independently of the scope of the project. The scope test in the present CV study was applied to endangered species preservation. Of four external tests of insensitivity to scope (here as: i-to-sc.), one was rejected, two gave mixed results, depending on either the type of test or elicitation format, and for the last one the null hypothesis could not be rejected. Of five internal tests, i-to-sc. was rejected in three cases, one test gave mixed results, and one could not be rejected. Survey design features of the CV study, especially an unfamiliar sub-group of endangered species, could explain the apparent i-to-sc. observed. |
