Monica and Isabel are roommates who, on this particular Saturday morning, are trying to decide what scarf to wear. Each has a Burberry scarf (which we’ll denote B), a tan scarf (denoted T), and a mauve scarf (denoted M). They care about the scarf but also about whether they end up wearing the same or different scarves. The preference ordering (from best to least preferred outcome) for Monica is: (1) she wears B and Isabel wears T or M; (2) she wears T and Isabel wears B or M; (3) she wears B and Isabel wears B; (4) she wears T and Isabel wears T: (5) she wears M and Isabel wears M; and (6) she wears M and Isabel wears B or T. Isabel’s preference ordering is: (1) she wears T and Monica wears B or M; (2) she wears M and Monica wears B or T; (3) she wears T and Monica wears T; (4) she wears M and Monica wears M; (5) she wears B and Monica wears B; and (6) she wears B and Monica wears T or M. Applying the IDSDS, which scarves will be worn?
