In this paper I study two ways of transforming decision problems on the basis of previously adopted intentions, ruling out
incompatible options and imposing a standard of relevance, with a particular focus on situations of strategic interaction.
I show that in such situations problems arise which do not appear in the single-agent case, namely that transformation of
decision problems can leave the agents with no option compatible with what they intend. I characterize conditions on the agents’
intentions which avoid such problematic scenarios, in a way that requires each agent to take account of the intentions of
others. |
