Discrete models of menu choice.
Chandrasekher, Madhav.

Discrete models of menu choice. - 82 p.

Adviser: Chris Shannon.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 2008.

This dissertation analyzes discrete models of menu choice. The primary conceptual innovation is that it formalizes the notion of reference-dependent choice within the menu choice framework. We axiomatically characterize a decision model that unifies the classes of preferences known, respectively, as preference for commitment and preference for flexibility. On a methodological level, the analysis in the paper is entirely discrete which is, by itself, a novelty. The seminal work by Kreps (1979) notwithstanding, almost all papers couch their analysis in the menu-choice analogue of the von-Neumann-Morgenstern (vNM) choice domain. By working in a discrete choice domain we are able to obtain a parsimonious model that avoids some of the start-up costs of the vNM models. Moreover, while utilities are not numerically identified we show that the salient characteristics of the utilities are ordinal invariants.
