Abstract
This paper shows how a multi criteria approach to decisionmaking can be used as a general means of modelling the process of framing decisions. A multi objective goal programming approach is used to show how well known linear and nonlinear programming models, including the constant sum game, the distribution (transportation) model and peak load pricing problems can be seen as preemptively framed specializations of more general non preemptive specifications. In these specializations choices of optimal frames and of optima within those frames can be seen as potentially interactively optimizing parts of an overall multi criteria decisionmaking process. The paper also shows how this new way of modelling such interactions can be highly significant and leads directly to new kinds of frame related motivations for Allais-like revealed preference reversals and resolutions of the more for less and more for nothing paradoxes in the distribution model.
