    Journal Article

    This is a theoretical article designed to summarize and evaluate social research relevant to two models of behavioral choice, a maximizing step function and a matching equation. Research is reviewed for a range of social situations, and, in each case, the data are described by a matching equation, never a step function. Several implications of the matching equations are detailed.
