Abstract
The application of metaregression analysis models for the purpose of benefit transfer is investigated using in‐sample convergent validity tests on average value transfers. The database on which the metaregression analysis models are developed is composed of empirical outdoor recreation use value studies conducted from 1967 through 1998. Results of the convergent validity tests suggest that the national model is slightly more robust to changes in application than the Census Region models. The results suggest that the application of meta‐analysis for benefit transfers is promising considering limitations imposed by inconsistent data reporting of original studies.
