Approval Voting on Dichotomous Preferences
The aim of this paper is to find normative foundations of Approval Voting.In order to show that Approval Voting is the only social choice functionthat satisfies anonymity, neutrality, strategy-proofness and strict mono-tonicity we rely on an intermediate result which relates strategy-proofnessof a social choice function to the properties of Independence of IrrelevantAlte...
متن کاملStructure in Dichotomous Preferences
Many hard computational social choice problems are known to become tractable when voters’ preferences belong to a restricted domain, such as those of singlepeaked or single-crossing preferences. However, to date, all algorithmic results of this type have been obtained for the setting where each voter’s preference list is a total order of candidates. The goal of this paper is to extend this line...
متن کاملQuaternary dichotomous voting rules
In this paper we provide a general model of quaternarydichotomous voting rules (QVRs), namely, voting rules for making collective dichotomous decisions (to accept or reject a proposal), based on vote pro les in which four options are available to each voter: voting (yes, noor abstaining) or staying home and not turning out. The model covers most of actual real-world dichotomus rules, wh...
متن کاملIntroducing a Non-Dichotomous Method for Scoring Selected-Response Tests
The main purpose of this study was to introduce a new non-dichotomous scoring procedure for the multiple-choice test method, called Parledge. The research also aimed to determine Parledge characteristics through a psychometric study comparing it with the “Number Correct” and “Correction for Guessing” scoring methods. There were 35 students participating in the study who were given a vocabulary ...
متن کاملCollective choice under dichotomous preferences
Agents partition deterministic outcomes into good or bad. A direct revelation mechanism selects a lottery over outcomes — also interpreted as time-shares. Under such dichotomous preferences, the probability that the lottery outcome be a good one is a canonical utility representation. The utilitarian mechanism averages over all deterministic outcomes “approved” by the largest number of agents. I...
