The Borda Count (BC) is a positional voting procedure fairly often applied in nonpolitical choice settings. It has a usual mixture of good and bad theoretical properties. It is monotonic and consistent and excludes the election of an eventual Condorcet loser. It, however, does not necessarily...

We challenge the standard definition of economic rationality as consistency by making use of a novel distinction … between axioms of decision theory: consistency and preference axioms. We argue that this distinction has been overlooked by … the literature and, as a result, evidence that consistency is a proxy of decision-making ability is often based on …

Based on an analysis of changes in the yields of German government bonds, we propose a simple model for the term structure of interest rates and show empirically that this model with two parameters (relating to the interest level and slope of the term structure) fits empirically well the data...
