Banfi, Silvia Farsi, Mehdi Filippini, Massimo 2006 This paper analyses the demand of Swiss families for child care facilities. A choice experiment has been used to study the effects of the facilities’ characteristics as well as socioeconomic factors on the selected child care mode. The experimental data have been analysed using a discrete choice model with multinomial logit specification. The results suggest that the stated demand for extrafamilial child care is considerably higher than that observed from the actual choices, suggesting insufficient provision of affordable care. The child care choices depend significantly on price and quality attributes and certain families’ characteristics such as income and education. application/pdf https://n2t.net/ark:/12658/srd1317996 https://susi.usi.ch/global/documents/317996 https://susi.usi.ch/documents/317996/files/1_wp0603.pdf eng info:eu-repo/semantics/altIdentifier/ark/12658/srd1317996 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess License undefined Child care Choice experiment Discrete choice info:eu-repo/classification/udc/33 An empirical analysis of child care demand in Switzerland http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_816b
