A Range-Normalization Model of Context-Dependent Choice: A New Model and Evidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Most utility theories of choice assume that the introduction of an irrelevant option (called the decoy) to a choice set does not change the preference between existing options.

The Decoy Effect Within Alcohol Purchasing Decisions

open access: yesSubstance Use & Misuse, 2016
The decoy effect is the phenomenon where the introduction of a third choice to a decision dyad changes the distribution of preferences between options.Examine whether this effect exists in alcohol purchasing decisions and whether testing context impacts this.Fifty-two participants tested in either a bar or library context and were asked to choose one ...

Simple solvation potential for coarse-grained models of proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We formulate a simple solvation potential based on a coarsed-grain representation of amino acids with two spheres modeling the $C_\alpha$ atom and an effective side-chain centroid.

Consumer Legal Protection from the Decoy Effect Through Digital Literacy

open access: yesSubstantive Justice International Journal of Law, 2022
The millennial and generation Z tend to experience the negative impact of the decoy effect, so a consumer protection law is required. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the negative impact of the decoy effect and the importance of consumer ...

The TRAIL-receptor-1: TRAIL-receptor-3 and -4 ratio is a predictor for TRAIL sensitivity of cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a potent inducer of apoptosis in many cancer cells. However, a significant proportion of tumours are TRAIL-resistant erecting a major hurdle for a successful TRAIL-based treatment ...

Comparative study on consumers’ choice behaviors in selecting pork in rational and irrational scenarios

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
To better understand the purchasing decision-making process of humane pork, and examine the internal relationship between consumers’ preferences in rational consumption and irrational decoy scenarios, 405 consumers in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province, and ...

Secure and efficient decoy-state quantum key distribution with inexact pulse intensities

open access: yes, 2006
We present a general theorem for the efficient verification of the lower bound of single-photon transmittance. We show how to do decoy-state quantum key distribution efficiently with large random errors in the intensity control.

An Artificial CTCF Peptide Triggers Efficient Therapeutic Efficacy in Ocular Melanoma

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2020
Although CCCTC binding factor (CTCF) has been demonstrated to play a variety of often contradictory roles in tumorigenesis, little is known about its function in the tumorigenesis of ocular melanoma. Here, we generated two artificial CTCF peptides (Decoy-
