It also apparently involved the preference of the attackers, who officials said were from the Haqqani network of the Taliban, for killing soldiers and police officers.
The economic element of the study also involves the assessment of preferences for delivery of care, and will be assessed using a Discrete Choice Experiment (DCE) to be administered as a separate questionnaire at one year only.
Partly, this involves knowing the preferences and predilections of the target.
But we argue that neither of these explorations is appropriate when it involves reducing the preferences of a person, or group of persons, to a set of predictive or predictor variables, since this undermines the fundamental personhood of the preference-bearer [50].
Even though the land-use planning cannot be completed without involving the stakeholders' preferences, we conclude that the workflow described in this paper produced valuable information on the overlaps and tradeoffs of the ESs for the related decision support.
These are relatively small shifts, theoretically involving the changing preferences of just one voter in 50 (though shifting enthusiasm, affecting which voters qualify as "likely voters" or otherwise choose to participate in polls, likely plays a role as well).
Because it involves the aggregation of ranked preferences, the single transferable vote formula necessitates complex electoral computations.
Shared decision-making, which explicitly involves the patients and their preferences, is therefore imperative, but requires also a sufficient explanatory infrastructure.
Using persuasion techniques for the purpose of changing patient preferences involves the exercise of verbal power, and such use of professional power requires a special ethical justification.
The revealed preference paradigm draws on Samuelson's seminal article [ 18] and involves the exploration of people's preferences as revealed through their actions in markets, specifically related to the value of interest.
