Section 'More general utility functions and analysis' generalizes the framework analysis and finds the conditions on the utility.
The specified utility functions in the model can be considered a reduced form of a more general utility function where agents care about their reproductive success.
We will mention a broader choice of utility functions that can be applied to our framework later in Section 'More general utility functions and analysis'.
On the other hand, my model allows for a more general utility function, where there is a parameter governing the willingness to substitute consumption intertemporally.
However, this work may also find more general utility in showing how different surface pre-treatments affect surface reactivity and in turn could impact adhesion to Zn or other metal surfaces.
The theory of coherence, as originally developed by Helfferich, was restricted to a number of stringent premises for the sake of simplicity and clarity, but the more general utility of the concept is apparent.
And while pure VR can shut itself away from public ridicule in a private room, AR's pitch tends to involve claims of more general utility because of the blended view it offers.
Studying other populations with different levels of pulmonary inflammation would also give useful information and hence help us to understand whether 18F-FDG has more general utility for imaging lung inflammation.
Aspects such as the adoption of a more general utility function will not involve any significant departure from the basic model, as long as a suitable single-crossing condition is assumed.
To be of more general utility, an analysis method should be flexible enough to identify components of a structure that may reflect the influence of the more diffuse interactions and thus be able to identify assemblies that are mainly the result of close-packing as well as networks of directed interactions.
