Analytics & Insights Conference
May 4-5, 2023
How Sparse is Too Sparse?
Jon Godin, Abby Lerner & Megan Peitz
​
Clients often want to test many items using MaxDiff. Previous research shows that Sparse MaxDiff
is a valid technique for testing these conditions; however, these designs typically include many
alternatives per task (5 or more). What happens when the items are extremely wordy or long?
With triplets or, even worse, paired comparisons, we get much less information per task -
can Sparse approaches still work under these more extreme conditions?
Building Designs for Individual-Level Estimation: Considerations, Implications and New Tools
Trevor Olsen & Megan Peitz
​
Marketing practitioners choose to run individual-level models (HB) to capture heterogeneity
in preferences when it comes to trade-offs. But the majority of designs built for choice research
are focused on improving the insights at the aggregate level. Our hypothesis is that there are better
design strategies to capture individual heterogeneity and ultimately improve model predictions,
particularly when it comes to looking at subgroups within the data. This paper will explore several
methods of optimizing designs including relabeling-swapping routines and utility balanced
designs and give the audience access to an open-source package, built in Julia by the
Numerious team, to build these types of designs.

"Megan recently conducted a training on advanced quantitative methods for our team. She quickly established comfort and rapport, making the training engaging, relevant, and even fun. Megan was able to demystify methods we don’t use often as we would like. The training had a positive impact on those from a variety of backgrounds and experience-levels – introducing ideas and laying the ground work for our newest employees, instilling confidence and know-how in our research managers, and bringing new ideas to our most veteran consultants.
We look forward to having Megan back to conduct future trainings, as well as partnering on upcoming research projects."

"I work in a market research company, but do not have a background in psychology or statistics and was really scared of Conjoint and the math behind it. You have shown to me how interesting, fun, challenging and useful it can be and successfully inspired me to want to learn more about it!"
