The predictive validity of the two methods, Aspiration-level interactive method (AIM) and conjoint analysis, used for solving decision problems involving discrete alternatives are compared. An empirical analysis based on subjects’ preferences for a multiattribute product (buying a house) and a service (selecting an MBA program for study) indicated that consumer preferences derived from AIM may be more valid than the preferences derived from the full-profile conjoint analysis method.
