Choice foundations: Diagnostic tools for individual-level model development

该项目旨在通过更好地反映人们如何做出决定来改善交通、环境和卫生等领域的决策。一个由经济学家和心理学家组成的跨学科小组将利用新的数学和统计工具来测试对作为观察到的选择行为基础的选择公理的遵守情况。该项目将制作一套计算机化的统计工具，利用贝叶斯方法测试选择公理，并有能力改进国家和国际一级广泛的应用经济学工作。

This project aims to improve policy making in areas such as transport, environment and health, by better representation of how people make decisions. An interdisciplinary team of economists and psychologists will build on new mathematical and statistical tools to test for adherence to choice axioms that underlie observed choice behaviour. The project will produce a set of computerized statistical tools to implement the testing of choice axioms using Bayesian methods with the capacity to improve a wide array of applied economics work at the national and international levels.
