By paying for the information they behave as informed traders.
"You have a population that is informed and consumerist about how it behaves about health care information, and an N.H.S. that can no longer afford to pay for everything for everybody," he said.
Also included in the model was a sequence of mathematical equations to represent the physical properties of the tissues involved defining such things as how the heart tissue behaves when stressed.All this information was tied together in a program called CMISS, developed by researchers at the University of Auckland to create a structural framework of the heart.
The information delay behaves as a type of dampening.
Or trust them to behave "responsibly", keeping information out of the public domain (or at least downplaying it) in the interests of economic stability?
As the rational-choice theorists Rodney Stark and Roger Finke argued in their book "Acts of Faith" (2000), human beings, when confronted with imperfect information, behave in a way that is generally rational.
