Adventures in Conjoint Analysis: A Practitioner's Guide to Trade-Off Modeling and Applications

TO: Fellow Educators and Marketing Research Practitioners
FROM: Abba Krieger, Paul Green, and Jerry Wind
SUBJECT: Adventures in Conjoint Analysis

We are pleased to make available to interested academics and marketing researchers a copy of the above-mentioned monograph. The monograph is still in need of reader feedback on both linguistic (typos and other lapses) and content evaluations. You may download files for all chapters from the Table of Contents below.

 Adventures deals with the growth and maturation of conjoint analysis over the past three decades. The authors have attempted to produce a monograph directed (primarily) to marketing research practitioners and academics who are also interested in real world applications.

We seek your help on two counts:

  • Linguistic lapses, however slight they may be, and
  • Content dealing with technical level, chapter flow, and writing clarity.

The monograph consists of an Introduction and Technical Appendix, followed by 14 chapters related to the use of conjoint analysis and related techniques in:

  • product positioning and market segmentation
  • pricing models and brand equity
  • ancillary research techniques
  • alternative conjoint models, and
  • some off-beat applications

followed by two "chapters" dealing with pedagogical materials, namely:

  • an introductory presentation of conjoint analysis (via transparencies) and
  • a Baltimore Ravens legal case involve the adoption of a new logo (via transparencies).

The authors seek your help in commenting on the monograph's strengths and weaknesses, and providing ideas and opinions on how the book can be improved. In return, you will note that there is no charge for the monograph.  We hope that the book is interesting enough to prompt your interest in how it may be improved.

You may communicate your opinions and suggestions by e-mail to Paul Green  at greene@wharton.upenn.edu or by mail to
