Thank you for this suggestion and your time looking into this.
Best,

Important: Read this before posting to this forum
- This forum is for questions related to the use of Apollo. We will answer some general choice modelling questions too, where appropriate, and time permitting. We cannot answer questions about how to estimate choice models with other software packages.
- There is a very detailed manual for Apollo available at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/manual.html. This contains detailed descriptions of the various Apollo functions, and numerous examples are available at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/examples.html. In addition, help files are available for all functions, using e.g. ?apollo_mnl
- Before asking a question on the forum, users are kindly requested to follow these steps:
- Check that the same issue has not already been addressed in the forum - there is a search tool.
- Ensure that the correct syntax has been used. For any function, detailed instructions are available directly in Apollo, e.g. by using ?apollo_mnl for apollo_mnl
- Check the frequently asked questions section on the Apollo website, which discusses some common issues/failures. Please see http://www.apollochoicemodelling.com/faq.html
- Make sure that R is using the latest official release of Apollo.
- Users can check which version they are running by entering packageVersion("apollo").
- Then check what is the latest full release (not development version) at http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/code.html.
- To update to the latest official version, just enter install.packages("apollo"). To update to a development version, download the appropriate binary file from http://www.ApolloChoiceModelling.com/code.html, and install the package from file
- If the above steps do not resolve the issue, then users should follow these steps when posting a question:
- provide full details on the issue, including the entire code and output, including any error messages
- posts will not immediately appear on the forum, but will be checked by a moderator first. This may take a day or two at busy times. There is no need to submit the post multiple times.

Re: After ICLV: Simulate WTP along range of LV
Thank you for the warning.
If wanting to plot WTP against something like the "strength" of the latent LV would it be better to simulate the LV and the other random parameters for different values of the (ordinal) observed indicator variables linked to that LV?

Re: After ICLV: Simulate WTP along range of LV
Thanks, Stephane. Yes, simulate marg. WTP while keeping the LV fixed at a specific value, and then repeat that for another value of the LV, etc. My ultimate aim is to do a plot like Figure 4 in this paper: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jebo.2017.07.023 In my model, parameters of all non-monetary attribu...

Re: After ICLV: Simulate WTP along range of LV
Hi Stephane, Thanks for your reply. You are right, the LV is normally distributed. But regardless of any range, I would like to extract the unconditionals for specific, fixed values of an LV, let's say -1: I need the unconditionals of all random preference weights when the LV in question is -1. Howe...

After ICLV: Simulate WTP along range of LV
Hello, I'm running an ICLV model with 4 LVs and (currently still) uncorrelated random parameters in the choice equation. The model is in preference space, parameters are normally distributed, cost parameter is mirrored log-normally distributed, so I need to use unconditional draws to simulate marg. ...
