Abstract
We study a shortlisting model of choice where a decision-maker first applies her inherent rationale and then follows with a sequence of refined rationales that are triggered by inferior alternatives in a menu. Our decision-maker exhausts all the possible paths of sequential filtering. This model captures choice anomalies in multi-attribute choice space where shortlisting seems to be a natural heuristic, and where existing literature comes short.
期刊介绍：
The international, interdisciplinary journal Mathematical Social Sciences publishes original research articles, survey papers, short notes and book reviews. The journal emphasizes the unity of mathematical modelling in economics, psychology, political sciences, sociology and other social sciences.
Topics of particular interest include the fundamental aspects of choice, information, and preferences (decision science) and of interaction (game theory and economic theory), the measurement of utility, welfare and inequality, the formal theories of justice and implementation, voting rules, cooperative games, fair division, cost allocation, bargaining, matching, social networks, and evolutionary and other dynamics models.
Papers published by the journal are mathematically rigorous but no bounds, from above or from below, limits their technical level. All mathematical techniques may be used. The articles should be self-contained and readable by social scientists trained in mathematics.
