Comparing descriptive and theoretical models of decision-making under uncertainty and their relation to socioeconomic factors. [PDF]
This study examines the selection and validation of measurement models for decision-making under uncertainty, with particular emphasis on the integration of socioeconomic contexts in these models. We critically compared four distinct models, differing in

An examination of ambiguity aversion [PDF]
Ambiguity aversion has been widely observed in individuals' judgments. Using scenarios that are typical in decision analysis, we investigate ambiguity aversion for pairs of individuals.

Preferences after pan(dem)ics: Time and risk in the shadow of COVID-19 [PDF]
This paper uses the COVID-19 health crisis to study how individual preferences respond to generalized traumatic events. We review previous literature on natural and man-made disasters. Using incentive-compatible tasks, we simultaneously estimate risk and

Randomization and Ambiguity Aversion [PDF]
We propose a model of preferences in which the effect of randomization on ambiguity depends on how the unknown probability law is determined. We adopt the framework of Anscombe and Aumann (1963) and relax the axioms. In the resulting representation of the individual's preference, the individual has a collection of sets of priors

Ambiguity aversion in a delay analogue of the Ellsberg Paradox [PDF]
Decision makers are often ambiguity averse, preferring options with subjectively known probabilities to options with unknown probabilities. The Ellsberg paradox is the best-known example of this phenomenon.

Are Policymakers Ambiguity Averse?* [PDF]
Abstract We investigate the ambiguity preferences of a unique sample of real-life policymakers at the Paris UN climate conference (COP21). We find that policymakers are generally ambiguity averse. Using a simple design, we are moreover able to show that these preferences are not necessarily due to an irrational behavior, but rather to ...

Ambiguity Aversion and Underdiversification [PDF]
We examine asset allocation decisions under smooth ambiguity aversion when an investor has a prior degree of belief in the domestic capital asset pricing model (CAPM). Different from a Bayesian approach, the investor separately relies on the conditional distribution of returns and on the posterior over parameters to make decisions, rather than on the ...
