我在看有关价格歧视方面的文章，在几篇文章里都遇到了commit/ commitment 这个词，不太明白这个词具体含义是什么。

下面一段话摘自Armstrong的“Recent Development in the Economics of Price Discrimation"(2005):

2.2 Dynamic Pricing:

Three distinct settings are discussed in this section: the case where consumers are sophisticated and the firm can commit to its pricing plans; the case where consumers are "naive" and do not forsee the firm may react strategically to their initial choices; and the case where consumers are sophisticated but the firm cannot commit to its pricing plans.

Sophisticated consumers and commitment
Naive consumers
Sophisticated consumers and no commitment

请大家指教

谢谢！：）
