Rational inattention, optimal consideration sets, and stochastic choice
We unite two basic approaches to modelling limited attention in choice by showing that the
rational inattention model implies the formation of consideration sets—only a subset of the …

Dynamic random utility
We provide an axiomatic analysis of dynamic random utility, characterizing the stochastic
choice behavior of agents who solve dynamic decision problems by maximizing some …

Bounded rationality in choice theory: A survey
A vibrant literature incorporates elements of bounded rationality into choice theory. We
survey this work, discussing five central ways in which the literature has modeled departures …

Growing attention
Y Masatlioglu, TP Vu - Journal of Economic Theory, 2024 - Elsevier
We model a boundedly rational agent who exhibits limited and heterogeneous attention.
The agents' attention can be naturally sorted in an ascending order. We provide a …

Measuring Stochastic Rationality
Our goal is to develop a partial ordering method for comparing stochastic choice functions
on the basis of their individual rationality. To this end, we assign to any stochastic choice …

Identifying Restrictions on the Random Utility Model
PP Caradonna, C Turansick - arxiv preprint arxiv:2408.06547, 2024 - arxiv.org
We characterize those ex-ante restrictions on the random utility model which lead to
identification. We first identify a simple class of perturbations which transfer mass from a …

[PDF][PDF] Comparative rationality of random choice behaviors
We develop a partial ordering approach toward comparing stochastic choice functions on
the basis of their rationality. Loosely speaking, we do this by assigning to any stochastic …

Despite being the fundamental primitive of the study of decision-making in economics,
choice correspondences are not observable: even for a single menu of options, we observe …
