Abstract: Multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) provides a well-established family of decision tools to aid stakeholder groups in arriving at collective decisions. MCDA can also function as a framework for the social learning process, serving as an educational aid in decision
problems characterized by a high level of public participation. In this paper, the framework and results of a structured decision process
using the outranking MCDA methodology preference ranking organization method of enrichment evaluation (PROMETHEE) are
presented. PROMETHEE is used to frame multi-stakeholder discussions of river management alternatives for the Upper White River of
Central Vermont, in the northeastern United States. Stakeholders met over 10 months to create a shared vision of an ideal river and its
services to communities, develop a list of criteria by which to evaluate river management alternatives, and elicit preferences to rank and
compare individual and group preferences. The MCDA procedure helped to frame a group process that made stakeholder preferences
explicit and substantive discussions about long-term river management possible.

[Show/Hide Abstract]
Abstract: Conventional wisdom in the mortgage industry holds that loan-to-value (LTV) ratios are positively correlated with mortgage default rates. However, not all empirical studies of mortgage loan performance support this view. This paper offers a theoretical signaling model of why the correlation between LTV ratios and default risk is contingent upon the default costs of the borrower. Specifically, the model proposes that when default costs are high there exists a separating equilibrium in which risky borrowers will self-select into lower LTV loans to reduct the probability of facing a costly default, while safe borrowers will self-select into higher LTV loans as a signal of their enhanced creditworthiness. This adverse selection process gives rise to the possibility of higher default probabilites for lower LTV loans. Conversely, when default costs are low the conventional result, in which risky borrowers select higher LTV loans than safe borrowers, is obtained. Empirical results, based on a sample of 859 single-family residentail mortgage loans drawn from the portfolio of a national mortgage lender, are consistent with the separating equilibria predicted by the model.

[Show/Hide Abstract]
Abstract: The authors review the concept of organizational learning and present a broad conceptual framework for its modeling. Within this framework, one specific process for market-based organizational learning is postulated. An empirical test of this model leads the authors to conclude that a more positive learning orientation (a value-based construct) will directly result in increased market information generation and dissemination (knowledge-based constructs), which, in turn, directly affects the degree to which an organization makes changes in its marketing strategies (a behavioral construct). Managerial implications are discussed.
