摘要

The previous chapters described several approaches employed for determining partworths of attributes and tradeoffs among them. The chapters dealt with various methods for both of ratings-based and choice-based conjoint methods. In addition, we described several applications of conjoint methodology to different marketing problems such as product design, product positioning, pricing, market segmentation, and several miscellaneous problems. During the last thirty plus years since these methods were introduced to marketing research, researchers have tackled various problems that are encountered in applying these methods in practice. As Hauser and Rao have noted, conjoint analysis is alive and well. In fact there have been several developments in the last 5–10 years that place this methodology as one of the most vibrant techniques in marketing research.
