摘要：

We use choice experiments to examine privacy tradeoffs in smartphone applications ("apps"). Results show that the representative consumer is willing to make a one-time payment for each app of about $2.28 to conceal their browser history, $4.05 to conceal their contacts, $1.19 to conceal their location, $1.75 to conceal their phone's identification number, and $3.58 to conceal their texts. These valuations vary for different segments of society. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.
