Causality in Solving Economic Problems
The role of causal beliefs in people’s decisions when faced with economic problems was investigated. Two experiments are reported that vary the causal structure in prisoner’s dilemma-like economic situations. We measured willingness to cooperate or defect and collected justifications and think-aloud protocols to examine the strategies that people used to perform the tasks. We found: (i) Individ...
متن کاملPerceptual Causality Problems Reflexively Resolved
Causal theories of perception typically have problems in explaining deviant causal chains. They also have difficulty with other unusual putative cases of perception involving prosthetic aids, defective perception, scientifically extended cases of perception, and so on. But I show how a more adequate reflexive causal theory, in which objects or properties X cause a perceiver to acquire X-related...
متن کاملK-causality coincides with stable causality
It is proven thatK-causality coincides with stable causality, and that in a K-causal spacetime the relation K coincides with the Seifert’s relation. As a consequence the causal relation “the spacetime is strongly causal and the closure of the causal relation is transitive” stays between stable causality and causal continuity.
متن کاملThere are no causality problems for Fermi's two-atom system.
A repeatedly discussed gedanken experiment, proposed by Fermi to check Einstein causality, is reconsidered. It is shown that, contrary to a recent statement made by Hegerfeldt, there appears no causality paradoxon in a proper theoretical description of the experiment. PACS number: 03.65.Bz In a recent letter [1] Hegerfeldt discusses a gedanken experiment proposed by Fermi to determine the speed...
متن کاملInequality Problems of Equilibrium Problems with Application
This paper aims at establishing the existence of results for a nonstandard equilibrium problems $(EP_{N})$. The solutions of this inequality are discussed in a subset $K$ (either bounded or unbounded) of a Banach spaces $X$. Moreover, we enhance the main results by application of some differential inclusion.
