Revealed norm obedience

Abstract: We study a rational decision maker who obeys social norms. In our setup norms prescribe choices in some decision problems. The decision maker obeys norms in situations to which they apply and otherwise maximizes her preference relation. We characterize the class of choice functions that can be explained by this decision procedure, relate this procedure to other decision procedures in the literature, and engage in welfare considerations.
