Intransitivity of preferences.

It is shown that, under specified experimental conditions, consistent and pre- dictable intransitivities can be demonstrated. The conditions under which intransitivities occur and their relationships to the structure of the alternatives and to processing strategies are investigated within the framework of a general theory of choice. Implications to the study of preference and the psychology of choice are discussed.
