Abstract:If the standard decision analysis approach was applied to a competitive situation, then the decision maker would attempt to assess a subjective probability distribution over all possible actions by the competitors or rivals. However, in assessing this probability distribution, the decision maker would quickly find him/herself in an infinite regress. This paper presents an approach to overcoming this infinite regress in performing decision analyses of competitive situations with a "pure" infinite regress.
