This paper introduces a new framework for analyzing sequential decision-making, focusing on endogenous stopping behavior. It defines computable rules using Turing machines and establishes their equivalence with finite automata. The research extends abstract choice theory to infinite sequences of alternatives, providing testable implications and a revealed-preference toolkit to characterize specific choice procedures like threshold-based and satisficing methods.
