Lattical token systems.

Sergei Ovchinnikov (2000)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Stochastic token theory is a new branch of mathematical psychology. In this paper we investigate algebraic properties of token systems defined on finite lattices.

Modeling biased information seeking with second order probability distributions

Gernot D. Kleiter (2015)

Kybernetika

Updating probabilities by information from only one hypothesis and thereby ignoring alternative hypotheses, is not only biased but leads to progressively imprecise conclusions. In psychology this phenomenon was studied in experiments with the “pseudodiagnosticity task”. In probability logic the phenomenon that additional premises increase the imprecision of a conclusion is known as “degradation”. The present contribution investigates degradation in the context of second order probability distributions....

Multiagent opinion dynamics influenced by individual susceptibility and anchoring effect

Zihan Chen, Yu Xing, Huashu Qin (2019)

Kybernetika

This paper studies a new model of social opinion dynamics in multiagent system by counting in two important factors, individual susceptibility and anchoring effect. Different from many existing models only focusing on one factor, this model can exhibit not only agreement phenomena, but also disagreement phenomena such as clustering and fluctuation, during opinion evolution. Then we provide several conditions to show how individual susceptibility and anchoring effect work on steady-state behaviors...

Préférences et rationalité stochastiques

Pascal Bouyaux (1990)

Mathématiques et Sciences Humaines

Le but de cet article est de procéder à une présentation pédagogique d'un concept étendu de rationalité, la rationalité stochastique. Dans une première partie, nous exposons le problème à l'aide d'un exemple simple et posons un ensemble de définitions préliminaires. Puis, dans une seconde partie, nous présentons le résultat fondamental de Falmagne (1978) s'appliquant aux situations de choix multiples ; l'approche ensembliste de cet auteur est formalisée à partir du concept de polynômes de Block-Marschak...
