Título de la conferencia: “Choice through a unified lens: The prudential model”

Abstract
We present a new choice model. An agent is endowed with two sets of preferences: pro-preferences and con-preferences. For each choice set, if an alternative is the best (worst) for a pro-preference (con-preference), then this is a pro (con) for choosing that alternative. The alternative with more pros than cons is chosen from each choice set. Each preference may have a weight reflecting its salience. In this case, the probability that an alternative is chosen equals the difference between the weights of its pros and cons. We show that this model provides a unified lens through which every nuance of the rich human choice behavior can be structurally explained.
