Source Dependence in Effort Provision
Abstract We examine source dependence in the setting of effort provision. Our first experiment elicits preference over uncertain piece rate schemes to perform a real‐effort task. Our second experiment elicits effort after receiving an uncertain gift. We vary the probability of winning and the familiarity of natural sources of uncertainty.

The effects of awe‐eliciting experiences on consumers' aversion to choice ambiguity
Abstract Experiencing awe elicits feelings of both being part of something that is bigger than oneself (self‐transcendence) and a sense, or feeling, of smallness. Our studies show that these distinct responses serve as mechanisms of action that have both main and mediating effects on consumer preference in ambiguous choice contexts. Across five studies,

The Ellsberg paradox can help us understand how ambiguity can induce asset liquidation, which is reflected by gain or loss realization in the disposition effect. This study investigates the impact of ambiguity (as the Ellsberg Paradox describes) and framing effects on the disposition effect in asset liquidation decisions. By integrating prospect theory

Daniel Ellsberg on the Ellsberg Paradox
Even though Daniel Ellsberg’s 1961 article “Risk, ambiguity and the Savage axioms” is well-known and increasingly quoted in current decision theory, introducing the counterexample to Bayesian decision-making that got the normative value of Savage’s theory into trouble, its philosophical background remains totally unknown. This paper examines Ellsberg’s

A Unified, Resource-Rational Account of the Allais and Ellsberg Paradoxes.
Decades of empirical and theoretical research on human decision-making has broadly categorized it into two, separate realms: decision-making under risk and decision-making under uncertainty, with the Allais paradox and the Ellsberg paradox being a prominent example of each, respectively.
