Intentions, Decisions and Rationality
Martin van Hees, Olivier Roy

Abstract:
We argue that intentions with autonomous consequences pose
difficulties that force us to go beyond traditional models of decision
making. Of course, this does not mean that all intentions require such
extensions.  Intentions without autonomous consequences can readily be
described in terms of strategies in extensive decision
problems. However, as we hope to show, even the incorporation of such
'standard' intentions may form an enrichment of the decision theoretic
framework.
