OFAT Sensitivity Analysis for an Agent-Based Model of Dutch Food Consumption

Christa Blokhuis published a 5.5 KB Excel dataset on figshare in May 2026. The data contains a summary of OFAT-based sensitivity analysis for the MEET-eaters agent-based model. The model explores interactions between supermarket supply and household demand for meals within the Dutch socio-cultural context.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the sensitivity of model outcomes to different supply scenarios based on the described unlimited, fixed, or responsive supermarket supply.
• Evaluating the effectiveness of interventions targeting consumer preference or supermarket supply based on the described model results.
• Studying patterns in household meal choice reversion after short-term interventions based on the findings mentioned in the description.

Strengths

• Model development and assumptions were reviewed with experts, which likely enhances model acceptance and understanding.
• The dataset is openly available under a CC-BY-4.0 license, facilitating reuse and sharing.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
