Primes

• Decision
  • I can prefer chocolate to vanilla without ordering chocolate; once I order, I have decided, a separation Sen (1973) sharpened in his analysis of revealed preference and choice behavior.

    This sourceCritiques the revealed-preference approach and distinguishes preference (ranking) from choice (commitment).

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
