This issue begins with a multi-attribute utility model by Ralph L. Keeney and Dinah A. Vernik for a woman's decision to have a child when facing the biological clock. Then Barry R. Cobb presents a method for analysis of influence diagrams which contain continuous decision variables and non-Gaussian probability distributions. Next is an article by Johan René van Dorp, Salvador Cruz Rambaud, José García Pérez, and Rafael Herrerías Pleguezuelo, who introduce a probability elicitation procedure for the generalized trapezoidal distribution with a uniform central stage. This issue ends with an essay by Michael H. Rothkopf on why decision analysis, rather than game theory, is the right tool for auctions.
