Smoking: Risk, Perception, and Policy
ISBN: 9780761923817 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book presents a counter-view, based on a survey of several thousand young persons and adults, probing attitudes, beliefs, feelings, and perceptions of risk associated with smoking. The authors agree that young smokers give little or no thought to health risks or the problems of addiction.

The Construction of Preference
ISBN: 9780521542203 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 790 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. One of the main themes that has emerged from behavioral decision research during the past three decades is the view that people's preferences are often constructed in the process of elicitation. This idea is derived from studies demonstrating that normatively equivalent methods of elicitation (e.g., choice and pricing) give rise to systematically different responses. These preference reversals violate the principle of procedure invariance that is fundamental to all theories of rational choice. If different elicitation procedures produce different orderings of options, how can preferences be...
