  • Much of the current literature looks to explain the barriers that individual consumers encounter when purchasing EVs, either using qualitative methods or choice experiments.

    “As such, much of the current literature looks to explain the barriers that individual consumers encounter when purchasing EVs, either using qualitative methods (Egbue and Long, 2012;Schuitema et al., 2013;Franke and Krems, 2013), or also commonly, choice experiments to analyze willingness-to-pay for electric vehicles (Jensen et al., 2013;Noel et al., 2019;Hidrue et al., 2011).”

    From Understanding the socio-technical nexus of Nordic electric vehicle (EV) barriers: A qualitative discussion of range, price, charging and knowledge (2020) · cites this paper as Schuitema et al., 2013

    The Introduction (p. 4) says the paper examines how private consumers’ perceptions of EV attributes influence adoption, which supports the consumer-barriers aspect of the claim. But Schuitema et al. is cited specifically as an example of qualitative methods, whereas the Method (pp. 12–13) describes a two-wave online survey of 2,728 participants. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
