我认为决策受到道德、理性或其他美德的约束。决策者(DM)对结果有真正的偏好,但他觉得被迫在他认为“合理”的偏好中排名靠前的结果中做出选择。这个模型结合了大量关于分配偏好、慈善捐赠、偏见/歧视和腐败/贿赂的实证研究。我提供了模型的行为特征。我还表明,当真正的偏好已知时,可以从选择行为中识别出一组理由,而当两者都不知道时,选择行为实质上限制了真正的偏好和理由。我认为,正当性模型代表了对现有合理化模型的一种进步,因为它对可能的“理性”所赋予的结构改善了可追溯性、解释和识别。
I consider decision-making constrained by considerations of morality, rationality, or other virtues. The decision maker (DM) has a true preference over outcomes, but feels compelled to choose among outcomes that are top-ranked by some preference that he considers "justifiable." This model unites a broad class of empirical work on distributional preferences, charitable donations, prejudice/discrimination, and corruption/bribery. I provide a behavioral characterization of the model. I also show that the set of justifications can be identified from choice behavior when the true preference is known, and that choice behavior substantially restricts both the true preference and justifications when neither is known. I argue that the justifiability model represents an advancement over existing models of rationalization because the structure it places on possible "rationales" improves tractability, interpretation and identification.
