Behavioral implications of shortlisting procedures
TYSON, CJ (Springer Berlin-Heidelberg, 2013-10)We consider two-stage “shortlisting procedures” in which the menu of alternatives is first pruned by some process or criterion and then a binary relation is maximized. Given a particular first-stage process, our main result ... -
Modeling M-phase control in Xenopus oocyte extracts: the surveillance mechanism for unreplicated DNA
TYSON, CJ; Marlovits, G; Novak, B; Tyson, JJ (1998-05)Alternating phases of DNA synthesis and mitosis, during the first 12 cell divisions of frog embryos, are driven by autonomous cytoplasmic oscillations of M-phase promoting factor (MPF). Cell-free extracts of frog eggs ... -
Preference symmetries, partial differential equations, and functional forms for utility
TYSON, CJ (Elsevier/Science Direct, 2013)A discrete symmetry of a preference relation is a mapping from the domain of choice to itself under which preference comparisons are invariant; a continuous symmetry is a one-parameter family of such transformations that ... -
Satisficing behavior with a secondary criterion
TYSON, CJ (2015-03)Using the techniques of revealed preference analysis, we study a two-stage model of choice behavior. In the first stage, the decision maker maximizes a menu-dependent binary relation encoding preferences that are imperfectly ...
