Escaping from Bad Decisions presents a modern conceptual and
mathematical framework of the decision-making process. By
interpreting ordinal utility theory as normative analysis examined
in view of rationality, it shows how decision-making under
certainty, risk, and uncertainty can be better understood. It
provides a critical examination of psychological models in
multi-attribute decision-making, and evaluates the constitutive
elements of "good" and "bad" decisions. Multi-attribute
decision-making is analysed descriptively, based on the
psychological model of decision-making and computer simulations of
decision strategies. Finally, prescriptive examinations of
multi-attribute decision-making are performed, supporting the
argument that decision-making from a pluralistic perspective
creates results that can help "escape" from bad decisions. This
book will be of particular interest to graduate students and early
career researchers in economics, decision-theory, behavioral
economics, experimental economics, psychology, cognitive sciences,
and decision neurosciences.
