论文摘要
我们提出并公理化了分类思维模型(CTM),其中决策问题的框架会影响代理如何对替代方案进行分类,从而影响其对其的评估。突出的显着性模型,现状偏见,损失 - 不平等厌恶和当前的偏见都适合CTM的伞。这表明分类是关键选择新古典模型的基本机制。我们专注于CTM为Bordalo等人的显着思维模型提供行为基础。 (2013年)强调了其强大的预测和与其他模型的区别。
We propose and axiomatize the categorical thinking model (CTM) in which the framing of the decision problem affects how agents categorize alternatives, that in turn affects their evaluation of it. Prominent models of salience, status quo bias, loss-aversion, inequality aversion, and present bias all fit under the umbrella of CTM. This suggests categorization is an underlying mechanism of key departures from the neoclassical model of choice. We specialize CTM to provide a behavioral foundation for the salient thinking model of Bordalo et al. (2013) that highlights its strong predictions and distinctions from other models.
