De Finetti, Countable Additivity, Consistency and Coherence
The British Journal for the Philosophy of Science, 2008Many people believe that there is a Dutch Book argument establishing that the principle of countable additivity is a condition of coherence. De Finetti himself did not, but for reasons that are at first sight perplexing. I show that he rejected countable additivity, and hence the Dutch Book argument for it, because countable additivity conflicted with ...

Additive Plausibility Characterizes the Supports of Consistent Assessments [PDF]
We introduce three definitions. First, we let a "basement" be a set of nodes and actions that supports at least one assessment. Second, we derive from an arbitrary basement its implied "plausibility" (i.e. infinite-relative-likelihood) relation among the game's nodes.

On the use of dispersion measures consistent with additive shifts
2014In financial literature we can find many alternative dispersion and risk measures that can help us to identify a proper investments. However, only few di s- persion measures are consistent with additive shifts. In this work we propose to study the class of dispersion measures that consider that "more is better than less" and we analyze and empirically ...

The consistency of presented personality: Additional evidence from aggregation
Journal of Personality, 1984AbstractThe present study investigated people's variability across situations by getting ratings of 66 subjects on 14 bipolar dimensions from at least eight interactants, chosen for their diversity. The intercorrelation of single ratings yielded a mean coefficient of .221.

Weak and Strong Consistency in Additive Cost Sharing [PDF]
In this paper we study consistency in the context of additive cost sharing mechanisms. We contrast an extremely weak notion of consistency with the standard definition, which we denote strong consistency. First we show that many well known CSMs are consistent in both senses: Aumann-Shapley, random order methods, Shapley-Shubik, Serial cost, and also ...

Additional requirements for consistent description of nonlocal interactions in QED
Physics of Particles and Nuclei Letters, 2010This paper is devoted to the study of the combined description of local and nonlocal matter fields in the framework of quantum electrodynamics. Additionally considering the properties of inseparability of the ideas of charge and mass for fundamental particles and the indifference of electromagnetic forces to structure-forming interactions, which had a ...

Consistency of the proposed additive measures of revealed comparative advantage [PDF]
The recently proposed additive measures of revealed comparative advantage (RCA) have been argued as better alternatives to the Balassa Index. This note builds on those suggestions and provides a framework to assess their applicability by means of their consistency across the dimensions and inferences that the indices' informational content allow.
