Gaussian Cumulative Prospect Theory [PDF]
We propose a novel parametrization of Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT), as developed by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, that yields an explicit gamble valuation formula for Gaussian reward distributions. Specifically, we define parametric functions $ v_θ $, $ w^{-}_θ $, and $ w^{+}_θ $ satisfying three key properties.
