Dear all,

I am using a nested logit model to analyze a discrete choice experiment. I have one nest with three alternatives and one nest with only the baseline alternative. I have included an alternative-specific constant (ASC) to determine respondents' general propensity to choose an alternative over the baseline. That means that my ASC is basically equal to my nests (1 for the three alternatives, 0 for the baseline). Is that ok to do or is that problematic?

Thank you in advance!
Ellen
