The "Choice" Algorithm

Submitted by KT on Sun, 02/27/2011 - 2:19pm.

I like your idea. The fact that we observe different responses suggests that we choose our behavioral response.  The only thing I struggle with is whether there's an algorithm to determine choice. The different inputs to the algorithm could be the reason that we "choose" to respond differently. Why are our "choices" not subject to an algorithm?
