Legitimation: Decide Without Deciding!

2021
This chapter looks at how business families can achieve a sense of fairness in their decision-making. Given the contradictory systems of logic at work, ensuring legitimation is no easy task. Precisely because so much is decided in a paradox-friendly manner, it is vital for decisions to be legitimated, i.e.

Deciding with children [PDF]

open access: possibleArchives of Disease in Childhood, 2021
In my practice as a paediatric respiratory physician and working with the Children’s Bioethics Centre, I have been reflecting on the way in which children and adolescents are involved in decision-making for their own healthcare. My concern is that children and adolescents are not considered sufficiently in their own medical decisions, even though these

How to decide how to decide

Instructional Science, 1983
This article attempts to characterize the general problem of selecting methods for decision-making. The traditional rational approach to choice is from economics, which offers expected-value maximization. The task environment of decision method selection, however, does not seem to provide the data necessary for carrying out the expected-value ...

Deciding the decider: Mef2c in hematopoiesis [PDF]

open access: possibleNature Immunology, 2009
Factors influencing progenitor cell 'choice' between lymphoid and myeloid lineage fates are incompletely understood. New work implicates the transcription factor Mef2c as one component needed to promote lymphoid and suppress myeloid lineage differentiation.

Time and the decider

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2021
Abstract Shadmehr and Ahmed's book is a welcome extension of optimal foraging theory and neuroeconomics, achieved by integrating both with parameters relating to effort and rate of movement. Their most persuasive and prolific data come from saccades, where times before and after decision are reasonably determinate. Skeletal movements are less likely

Combining decidability paradigms for existential rules

Theory and Practice of Logic Programming, 2013
Existential rules are Datalog rules extended with existential quantifiers in rule-heads. Three fundamental restriction paradigms that have been studied for ensuring decidability of query answering under existential rules are weak-acyclicity, guardedness ...

Computability and Decidability [PDF]

open access: possible, 2012
A function f is computable if there exist an algorithm that produces the value of f correctly for each possible argument of f. The computation of f for a particular argument x just involves following the instructions in the algorithm, and it produces the result f(x) in a finite number of steps if x is in the domain of f.

Deciding How to Decide

1997
Abstract By ‘deciding how to decide’, I mean using practical reasoning to regulate one’s principles of practical reasoning. David Gauthier has suggested that deciding how to decide is something that every rational agent does.1 Whether or not we agree with Gauthier about agents in general, we might think that his suggestion applies well ...

To decide or not to decide, that is the decision to be made

IEEE Potentials, 2003
The article looks at how engineers can be trained in decision making. It provides a practical four-step approach to the decision making process. The first step is to know what has to be decided. Then the options or alternatives available must be set out.
