Implementing a subjective MCI model: an application to the furniture market
Article Abstract:
The Multiplicative Competitive Interaction (MCI) marketing model for managing store attraction was implemented using a subjective approach to the furniture market in Calvados, Normandy, France. To facilitate its use as a site selection tool, the zeta-squared transformation was carried out on the subjective data to enable the use of consumer surveys on factors determining store attraction. The results underscored the model's limitations in parameter estimation.

Rationality, emotion and preference change: drama-theoretic models of choice
Article Abstract:
Drama-theoretic models are employed in the convergence of contradicting conventional models of rational choice. In this context, theories on preference ranging from personal preferences, which cover emotions, to preferences within a group and organization are analyzed. Effective models can be designed which incorporate the vital effects of emotions and significance of debate in research purposes.
