Robinson's joint consistency theorem
ID: robinson-s-joint-consistency-theorem
Robinson's joint consistency theorem is a result in the field of decision theory and economics related to the consistency of preferences and the representation of preferences by a utility function. The theorem addresses the question of how to represent preferences over a set of choices that may vary according to certain parameters. Specifically, it deals with the conditions under which a joint distribution of choices can be consistent with the preferences of agents when making those choices.
