  • *The coefficients are expressed in birr (1 birr=US$0.035 as of 1 January 2019). A positive coefficient represents the amount that respondents are willing to contribute to access a facility with a given level of an attribute. Negative coefficients indicate that respondents should be compensated in order to offset the disutility due to a specific level of an attribute.
