Ingredients we need

Counterfactual emotions like regret are based on an agent’salteration of a factual situation and in the imagination of analternative situation that could have realized if somethingdifferent was done (Kahnemann & Miller, 1986)

We need:

Logic of agency for expressing counterfactual facts;

Imagination;

Time;

Counterfactual emotions like regret are based on an agent’salteration of a factual situation and in the imagination of analternative situation that could have realized if somethingdifferent was done (Kahnemann & Miller, 1986)

We will use:

Logic of agency for expressing counterfactual facts:Chellas’ STIT modal logic;

Imagination: modal epistemic logic;

Time (this work is preliminary... but it is a perspective);

Preferences: simple constructions with propositions.

DefinitionLanguage LgroupSTIT:

ϕ ::= p | ϕ ∧ ϕ | ¬ϕ | [J]ϕ

where J ⊆ AGT .

As usual, 〈J〉ϕ def= ¬[J]¬ϕ.

[J]ϕ means “group J sees to it that ϕ” ≡ “group J choosesactions such that whatever group J does, ϕ is true”.

dfKSTIT is decidable

Theorem

NP-complete if card(AGT ) = 1;

PSPACE-complete if card(AGT ) ≥ 2.

axiomatisation for the fragment?

add time?

improve modelisation of preferences?

find a more expressive fragment?

norms: guilt, shame?
