Collective Choice and Social Welfare
, 2017This book is concerned with the study of collective preference, in particular with the relationship between the objectives of social action and the preferences and aspirations of society's members. Professor Sen's approach is based on the assumption that

Social Capital and Entrepreneurial Financing Choice
Social Science Research Network, 2021This paper investigates the influence of social capital on young firms' financing arrangements. Using a sample of U.S. start-ups, I find that social capital, as captured by secular norms and social networks in the entrepreneur's county, increases access ...

Mapping Social Choice Theory to RLHF
arXiv.orgRecent work on the limitations of using reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) to incorporate human preferences into model behavior often raises social choice theory as a reference point.

Incorporating Reality into Social Choice
Adaptive Agents and Multi-Agent Systems, 2017When voting on a proposal one in fact chooses between two alternatives: (i) A new hypothetical social state depicted by the proposal and (ii) the status quo (henceforth: Reality); a Yes vote favors a transition to the proposed hypothetical state, while a

n this paper, we show how monads and substitutions allows for a separation between social choice and social ‘choosing’. Choice as value and choosing as operation is modeled using underlying signatures and related term monads. These monads are arranged over Goguen’s category Set(L), which provides the internalization of uncertainty both in choice as ...

Metric Distortion of Social Choice Rules: Lower Bounds and Fairness Properties
ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2016We study social choice rules under the utilitarian distortion framework, with an additional metric assumption on the agents' costs over the alternatives.

The Review of Economic Studies, 1976
An important hypothesis for Arrow's Impossibility Theorem is that any configuration of personal preferences on the part of the individuals involved must be allowed. In this paper a similar paradox is obtained under a weaker hypothesis. The set of individuals is supposed to be partitioned into disjoint " parties " characterized by the fact that no two ...

Social cognitive career theory (SCCT) consists of five interrelated models. Its original models focus on the determinants of educational and occupational interest, choice, and performance (including persistence) (Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994).

A social network comprises a collective of individuals who exert influence on each other via explicit communication/ control linkages. Applying social choice theory to networks requires the influence linkages to be explicitly embedded into the social choice model. Embedding is accomplished by replacing classical categorical preferences with conditional
