In the homogeneous case of one type of goods or objects, we prove the existence of an additive utility function without assuming transitivity of indifference and independence. The representation reveals a positive factor smaller than 1 that infuences rational choice beyond the utility function...

Lies can have profoundly negative consequences for individuals, groups, and even for societies. Understanding how lying evolves and when it proliferates is therefore of significant importance for our personal and societal well-being. To that effect, we here study the sender-receiver game in...

As part of a staged pedagogic strategy, Faff (2015, 2017) argue for the value of reverse engineering (RE) existing papers into the pitching research template. Extending this literature, the current paper outlines a “pitching research” “lite” procedure, founded on a basic RE strategy....
