Rational inattention, optimal consideration sets, and stochastic choice

A Caplin, M Dean, J Leahy - The Review of Economic Studies, 2019 - academic.oup.com
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

M Frick, R Iijima, T Strzalecki - Econometrica, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
We provide an axiomatic analysis of dynamic random utility, characterizing the stochastic
choice behavior of agents who solve dynamic decision problems by maximizing some …

Household collective models: Three decades of theoretical contributions and empirical evidence

O Donni, JA Molina - 2018 - papers.ssrn.com
Household collective models celebrate their thirtieth birthday. The collective approach
constitutes, perhaps, the microeconomics topic that has produced the largest number of …

Bounded rationality in choice theory: A survey

G de Clippel, K Rozen - Journal of economic literature, 2024 - pubs.aeaweb.org
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

EA Ok, G Tserenjigmid - arxiv preprint arxiv:2303.08202, 2023 - arxiv.org
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

EA Ok, G Tserenjigmid - Unpublished Working Paper, 2021 - researchgate.net
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 …

[PDF][PDF] Inferential choice theory

N Balakrishnan, EA Ok, P Ortoleva - Unpublished paper, 2021 - economics.ucr.edu
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 …

[HTML][HTML] Binary single-crossing random utility models

H Petri - Games and Economic Behavior, 2023 - Elsevier
We characterize the single-crossing random utility model (SCRUM)(Apesteguia et al.(2017))
restricted to the (experimentally and empirically) important domain of binary choice menus …
