Abstract: | This paper introduces a preference-free concept of non-manipulability contrasting it with a preference-theoretic concept of strategy-proofness, characterizing all non-manipulable and all strategy-proof (here as: str-prf.) judgment aggregation rules, and proving an impossibility theorem similar to the Gibbard-Satterthwaite theorem. It is shown that "conclusion-based voting" is less vulnerable to manipulation than "premise-based voting", which is str-prf. only for "reason-oriented" individuals (as: inds). Surprisingly, for "outcome-oriented" inds., the two rules are strategically equivalent, generating identical judgments in equilibrium. |
