Abstract
This paper explores lexicographically additive representations of mult i-attribute preferences on finite sets. Lexicographic additivity combi nes a lexicographic feature with local value tradeoffs. Tradeoff struc tures are governed by either transitive or nontransitive additive conj oint measurement. Alternatives are locally traded off when they are cl ose enough within threshold associated with a dominant subset of attri butes.
