A proposed alternative of the decision model based on the recognition of "status quo"

Abstract

In decision making, decision is significantly affected by what is the preference of each individual and which alternative is chosen under the status quo. However, the traditional decision making models, such as binary relations of individual order in the social choice theory or environment/state in the implementation theory, does not any pay attention to identification of status quo. The essay aims to propose a alternative model which employs information about status quo as a additional parameter to the traditional models.
