摘要: The generally prescribed procedure for choosing a decision strategy from tree employs backward induction analysis that entails 3 fundamental consistency principles: dynamic, consequential, and strategic. first requires the maker to follow through on plans end, second focus solely future events final consequences given current state of events, third is conjunction 2. Five experiments were reported test these principles using different subject populations, procedures estimating consistency, factors manipulating attractiveness gamble at stage tree. main findings strategic dynamic violated rates exceeded choice inconsistency.
