A variation of the cube model for best–worst choice

In this paper, we propose a dynamical model for the best–worst choice task. The proposed model is a modification of the multi-episode Cube model proposed and studied in so-called (Mallahi-Karai and Diederich, 2019, 2021). This model postulates that best–worst choice (or more generally, ranking) task is the outcome of sequential choices made in a number of episodes. The underlying model is a multivariate Wiener process with drift issued from a point in the unit cube, where episodes are defined in terms of a sequence of stopping times. This model can also be extended to an attention-switching framework in a standard way.
