We investigate how the mean-variance selection rule, originally proposed for portfolio selection problems, can work in Markovian decision models. We consider a Markov decision chain with finite state and action spaces, however, instead of average expected reward or average expected variance optimality we consider mean variance optimality, square mean variance optimality or weighted difference of average expected rewards and variances. Optimality conditions and algorithmic procedures are presented.
