正统的微观经济学理论假设消费者的偏好是外生的和恒定的。米尔顿·弗里德曼将恒定和外生偏好的假设视为经济学学科的基石。“接受既定的目的，使其有别于心理学(研究偏好的形成)和伦理学(研究偏好的评估)。”尽管L·弗里德曼发表了声明，但恒定和外生偏好的假设被许多研究人员拒绝。在对家庭行为的各种研究中，偏好的形成和变化被纳入到经济分析中。2这些研究对严格的模型进行了计量经济学检验，特别是那些包括习惯形成和偏好相互依赖的模型。
Orthodox microeconomic theory assumes that consumer preferences are exogenous and constant. Milton Friedman treats the assumption of constant and exogenous preferences as a cornerstone for the discipline of economics." The acceptance of the ends as given distinguishes it [economics] from psychology, which deals with the formation of preferences, and from ethics, which deals with the evaluation of preferences." l Friedman's statement notwithstanding, the assumption of constant and exogenous preferences is rejected by many researchers. Preference formation and change are incorporated into economic analysis in various studies of household behavior. 2 These studies econometrically test rigorous models, especially those that include habit formation and preference interdependence.
