a The likelihood ratio test is given by 2(Lβ-Lω), where Lω is the unrestricted maximum log-likelihood from the
mixed logit estimation and Lω is the restricted maximum log-likelihood from the multinomial logit estimation. It
has an asymptotic χ2(k) distribution where k is the number of required restrictions.
b McFadden R2 is computed as R 2=1- Lω Lω
***, **, * indicate that coefficients are statistically significant at the 1, 5 and 10 % levels, respectively, using
P-values in maximum likelihood estimation. Robust standard errors in parenthesis.
