Complex Questionnaires

چکیده
A principal wishes to ascertain an agent’s true profile in order to decide whether or not to accept his request. The principal designs a questionnaire regarding the agent’s profile and commits himself to accept the request if the agent’s answers satisfy certain conditions. The agent is boundedly rational in that he cannot fully understand the principal’s conditions and can only detect certain "regularities" in them. It is shown that the principal can construct a complex enough questionnaire that will allow him to respond optimally to agents who tell the truth and to almost eliminate the probability that an agent will succeed in cheating.
