Abstract: Abstract There are two distinct approaches to modeling individual behaviors. The first approach starts with preferences and proceeds to rationalizing the preferences and then showing the existence of a utility representation. The second approach is based on observations of individual choices and proceeds to reveal individual preferences with the aid of some consistency assumptions on individual preferences.
