    Formalized decision-making model: taking into account value motivation
    Computer Research and Modeling, 2025, v. 17, no. 2, pp. 323-338

    The paper considers the problems of mathematical description of deontological aspects influencing the behavior of decision makers. A methodology is proposed for correlating utilitarian (material) and deontological (value) aspects in their decision-making, taking into account their psychological characteristics. A mathematical model is proposed for the joint consideration of utilitarian and deontological factors in decision-making in various situations. Some patterns related to this consideration are identified, and their formal description is given. The model shows that there is a tendency for a gradual decrease in the level of deontology in evaluating alternatives when making decisions (compared to what the outside world inclines to) towards greater utilitarianism. Over time, this trend begins to influence public opinion and society’s attitude to moral norms, gradually reducing the overall level of morality in society. This process can be stopped only by constantly and purposefully maintaining a high level of deontology by society and the state (ideological work, promotion of traditional values, educational work at school, etc.), otherwise society will inevitably become utilitarian over time, focusing exclusively on material factors when making decisions.

    In the future, it is planned to use the developed tools for analyzing specific situations, including for analyzing the patterns of civilizational cycles: the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, the USSR, and modern Western civilization).

    Keywords: decision-making, deontological factors, moral choice, mathematical model, comparison of alternatives.

    Features of social interactions: the basic model
    Computer Research and Modeling, 2024, v. 16, no. 5, pp. 1323-1335

    The paper presents the results of research on the creation of a mathematical model of moral choice based on the development of the approach proposed by V. A. Lefebvre. Unlike V. A. Lefebvre, who considered a very speculative situation of a subject’s moral choice between abstract “good” and “evil” under pressure from the outside world, taking into account the subjective perception of this pressure by the subject, our study considers a more mundane and practically significant situation. The case is considered when the subject, when making decisions, is guided by his individual perception of the outside world (which may be distorted, for example, due to external purposeful informational influence on the subject and manipulation of his consciousness), and “good” and “evil” are not abstract, but are conditioned by a value system adopted in a particular society under consideration and tied to a specific ideology/religion, which may be different for different societies.

    As a result of the conducted research, a basic mathematical model has been developed, and special cases of its application have been considered. Some patterns related to moral choice are revealed, and their formal description is given. In particular, the situation of manipulation of consciousness is considered in the language of the model, the law of reducing the “morality” of a society consisting of so-called free subjects (that is, those who strive to act in accordance with their intentions and correspond in their actions to the image of their “I”) is formulated.

    Keywords: moral choice, mathematical model, intention, readiness function, value system, free subject.
