Abstract
Conjoint analysis has as its roots the need to solve important academic and industry problems. Paul Green’s work on conjoint analysis grew out of his contributions to the theory and practice of multidimensional scaling (MDS) to address marketing problems, as discussed in Chapter 3. MDS offered the ability to represent consumer multidimensional perceptions and consumer preferences relative to an existing set of products.
