Conflict and choice are closely related in that choice produces conflict and conflict is resolved by making a choice. Although conflict was invoked in psychological approaches to decision making early on (Lewin, 1931/1964), no generally accepted measure of conflict strength has been established (Tversky & Shafir, 1992). The present study introduces a model (multiattribute decision field theory) that predicts a decision time pattern depending on the conflict situation. In a risky decision-making experiment with multiattribute choice alternatives, decision time is investigated as a possible measure of conflict strength. It is shown that the model can be fitted to a complex choice pattern.
冲突与选择密切相关，因为选择会产生冲突，而冲突通过做出选择来解决。尽管冲突在早期的决策心理学方法中就已被提及（勒温，1931/1964），但尚未建立普遍接受的冲突强度衡量标准（特沃斯基和沙菲尔，1992）。本研究引入了一个模型（多属性决策场理论），该模型根据冲突情况预测决策时间模式。在一个具有多属性选择方案的风险决策实验中，研究了决策时间作为冲突强度的一种可能衡量指标。结果表明，该模型可以拟合复杂的选择模式。
