Abstract


A growing literature generalizes the classical model of random choice from Theorem 3 of Luce’s monograph (1959) to accommodate zero probabilities.

In the process, I answer some long-standing questions about Luce’s approach to zero probabilities; and generalize almost all of the results from the recent literature on extended Luce rules.
