“…Having said that, there are also models where randomization is not employed, and yet qualitatively similar phenomena occur (see e.g., [5]). Qualitatively similar behaviour has also been seen in the screening setting [17] where the receiver commits first, (see e.g., [20] and [21]), and where players move simultaneously [4].…”

“…As an example for this point, screening questionnaires administered at airports in the phases following COVID19 confinement can be considered (Vora & Kulkarni, 2021). In this type of questionnaire, passengers are asked to indicate whether they have been in areas of high COVID19 incidence in the past few days.…”

La necesidad en la actualidad de análisis precisos y personalizados a los intereses de los clientes ha puesto los perfilados psicográficos en el centro de atención. Los perfilados de los inversores permiten diseñar planes de inversión acordes a las diferentes características psicológicas del inversor. Esta investigación tiene como objetivo tanto, en un primer lugar, tratar los tipos más relevantes de perfilados existentes como, en un segundo lugar, resaltar la importancia de la recogida de los datos del perfilado y analizar las deficiencias que hoy en día tiene este proceso. El proceso de recogida de datos es esencial para la interpretación y posterior categorización de los clientes en los perfilados psicográficos del modelo. La presente es una investigación aplicada, explicativa y mayormente cualitativa que añade la identificación de los posibles errores en los resultados de perfilados obtenidos, provocados por la aplicación de test estandarizados de respuesta múltiple. Los test de respuesta múltiple pueden incitar comportamientos de satisficing que, en último término, provoquen un mal perfilado psicográfico. La introducción de la gamificación y de técnicas de análisis de la calidad de datos modernas (con índices que midan la consistencia y preguntas de control que permitan descartar respuestas no satisfactorias) en el proceso permitirían mitigar los comportamientos de satisficing y, por tanto, una recogida de datos más certera que derivaría en un mejor perfilado y una mayor satisfacción.

Criminals Can Be Leaders: An Endogenous Timing Approach to Security Games

Security Games traditionally assume sequential interactions, with the defender acting as the leader and the attacker as the follower. In this paper, we challenge such an assumption by showing that security interactions can also be simultaneous or that even the attacker might be the leader. Specifically, we consider a simple security game framework consisting of two possible targets, one attacker and one defender. Then, we extend that basic interaction using a well-known endogenous timing framework (the Game with Observable Delay) to endogenously obtain the timing of the game as part of the equilibrium outcome. Our results show that, for the same set of general assumptions, the interaction can be simultaneous or sequential (with either the defender or attacker being the leader). Although the simultaneous case could be discarded using payoff dominance, it is impossible to compare the two sequential configurations using the same criterion. The risk dominance criterion also turns out to be helpless in this case. Thus, we argue that considering attackers as leaders in Security Games is a plausible scenario that merits further consideration, not only from a theoretical point of view but also due to its alignment with certain types of real-world crime.
