In the resulting k-OD equilibrium\, a lower k reflects a less demanding level of sophistication in applying STP. We pr esent the class of gradual mechanisms\, featuring dynamic information feed back\, as a revelation principle for k-OD implementation. Applying k-OD to implement generalized median voter schemes\, we show how an increasing so phistication level k extends the range of implementable social choice func tions.\n  \n\n \n DTSTART:20221021T193000Z DTEND:20221021T210000Z LOCATION:Leacock 429\, Leacock Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 2T7\, 85 5 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Chew Soo Hong (National University of Singapore)\, 'Generalizing Ob vious Dominance using the Sure-thing Principle' URL:/economics/channels/event/chew-soo-hong-national-u niversity-singapore-generalizing-obvious-dominance-using-sure-thing-340410 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
