Revealed preference models provide insights into recreational angler behavior and the economic value of recreational fishing trips. Revealed preference data is typically collected by intercept and/or phone follow up calls. Typical variables include length of the trip (day or overnight), household income, whether or not angler took time off of work, and primary purpose of overall trip. Sometimes trip expenditures are included as well.
Intercept data collected from anglers at fishing sites as an economic add-on to the Marine Recreational Fisheries Statistical Survey (MRFSS) for Puerto Rico.
