"**PhD vacancy** | Improvements in health-state valuations using discrete choice experiments
This PhD project aims to advance our methodological research on employing discrete choice experiments (hashtag#DCE) to value health for cost-effectiveness analyses. Historically, interviewer-based time-trade-off studies have been utilized, which are costly and time-consuming to manage as well as difficult for
respondents, necessitating extensive quality-control measures. In contrast,
DCEs offer a promising alternative for measuring health-related quality of life
through online surveys. This approach is not only more cost-effective and less
resource-intensive but also less complex for respondents and allowing for
automated, model-based quality-control procedures during and after data
collection. However, DCEs tend to undervalue health unless they are based on
complex design optimization and statistical estimation methods.
