Abstract

El trabajo busca determinar la posible presencia del denominado “Efecto Mohring” dentro del sistema de transporte masivo Puma Katari, implementado por el Gobierno Municipal de La Paz el año 2014. Se parte estimando una función de utilidad, fundamentada en la teoría de las elecciones discretas y en la teoría de la utilidad aleatoria de McFadden (1974), que en su modelación incorpora diferencias de costos de viaje, diferencia de tiempos de viaje y tiempos de espera, así como las características socioeconómicas de una muestra de usuarios. Se estiman tres modelos Probit con dos alternativas de elección: Bus Puma Katari y Otro modo de transporte, concluyendo que no existen evidencias que respalden la presencia del “Efecto Mohring” en el mencionado sistema de transporte masivo.
