This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Inhaltsangabe:Abstract:In Chapter 2, Foundations , we provide a description of selected parts of theories which we believe are helpful to better understand the contribution of this thesis. We start with the presentation of several behavioral hypotheses in preference and utility theory. Next, we describe the basics of inferential statistics and Conjoint Analysis. Then, we describe probabilistic entropy, in addition to that a later established version of it, and its axiomatization as a general inference principle. We conclude Chapter 2 by presenting La Mura's decision-theoretic entropy, a version of entropy as an inference technique for expected utilities. La Mura had developed this connection between probabilistic entropy and expected utilities in his Ph.D. thesis.Based on his work, the initial research objective for this dissertation had been to make his approach applicable to the inference of unique consumer utilities given some observed evidence, having in mind the vast amounts of data that nowadays are available to analysts but still not used very effectively, in order to jointly overcome the limitations of Conjoint Analysis as mentioned above.In the following five chapters you will see that our research has instead resulted in a new method, namely Entropy Analysis, which is not based on expected utility functions but on ordinary utility functions. We close Chapter 2 with a conclusion for the following chapters.In Chapter 3, Entropy Analysis , we derive the new method combining probabilistic cross-entropy and ordinary utility functions. We start by imposing a set of conditions on the inference method. Then, we suggest a normalization of utility functions such that they become formally a probability measure. Finally, we present and prove our main result.In Chapter 4, Irrational Behavior , we present a solution for the problem of how to treat observed irrational behavior (see Definition 4.1) with Entropy Analysis. This is motivated by two reasons. First, we are hardly able to observe perfectly rational data in any survey or for any given set of transaction data. Therefore, any utility inference method that cannot deal with irrational data will not be meaningful for research or commercial applications.Second, our method is at first sight formally structured in a way in which its application to irrational data would return an inferred utility function that is trivial, i.e. uniform (to be further explained at the beginning of the [¿]Diplomica Verlag, Hermannstal 119k, 22119 Hamburg 208 pp. Englisch.…
