Uncertainty in Relation to Clinical Experience—A Qualitative Study on Dental Students' Reflections on Risk Assessment of Root Filled Teeth

International Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim In uncertain clinical situations, such as assessing the risk of exacerbation of apical periodontitis in root‐filled teeth, undergraduate students can benefit from being trained to reflect. This study aimed to explore how students specifically reflected on clinical experiences in relation to uncertainty when assessing a case involving a ...

Strategic Flip‐Flopping in Political Competition

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study candidates' position adjustments in response to information about voters' preferences. Repositioning allows candidates to move closer to the median voter, but it incurs financial and electoral costs. In a subgame‐perfect equilibrium, candidates diverge from the center ex ante if the costs of adjustment are sufficiently large.

Debt Ceilings With Fiscal Intransparency and Imperfect Electoral Accountability

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study optimal debt ceilings in a political‐agency model with uncertainty about both policymaker type (benevolent or selfish) and economic state (good or bad). Elections generate disciplining and selection effects that differ across pooling, hybrid, and separating equilibria induced by different ceilings.

Limit Orders and Knightian Uncertainty

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A wide variety of financial instruments allows risk‐averse traders to reduce their exposure to risk. This raises the question of what financial instruments allow ambiguity‐averse traders to reduce their exposure to ambiguity. We show in this paper that price‐contingent orders, such as limit orders, are sufficient: In a two‐period trading model,

Evaluating Allocations of Opportunities

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper provides a robust criterion for comparing lists of probability distributions—interpreted as allocations of opportunities—faced by different social groups. We axiomatically argue in favor of comparing those lists of probability distributions on the basis of a uniform—among groups—valuation of their expected utility.
