Description

Lucie Sabin and co-authors present a 2026 systematic review of discrete choice experiments in Iran's health system. These experiments learn what patients, clinicians, and the public value by asking them to choose between carefully varied hypothetical options, and Iranian use of the method is booming.

Thirty studies met the criteria, most published from 2021 onward, concentrated in cities, especially Tehran, and focused on health services and the workforce. Money, time, risk, and health outcomes were the usual attributes traded off. Quality was uneven: pilot testing and groundwork with target populations were inconsistent, nearly half used efficient experimental designs, and reporting of software, blocking, and opt-out choices was often missing. Conditional logit was the commonest estimator. The authors call for more diverse samples and tougher methods.
