Description: Historically, two of the most important contributions to psychological choice modelling are undoubtedly Thurstone's (1927) Law of Comparative Judgement and Coombs' (1950, 1964) unfolding theory. The framework that Thurstone's Law of Comparative Judgement provides for representing inconsistent choices is still the point of departure for much of the current work in probabilistic choice modeling. The resulting volume is fairly representative of the current work in psychological choice modeling.
