A Theory of Vague Expected Utility [PDF]

open access: possibleThe B.E. Journal of Theoretical Economics, 2004
We propose a new theory of choice between lotteries, which combines an 'economic' view of decision making - based on a rational, though incomplete, ordering - with a 'psychological' view - based on heuristics.

Expected Utility Theory

1998
Although we focus in Chap. 1 on various definitions of risk, recall that in the eyes of the investor, profitability is probably the main raison d’etre of investment. Thus, focusing on risk in our first chapter, by no means do we belittle this all-important function of investment. Our discussion of risk simply serves to emphasize that, in arriving at an

Expectation States Theory

Expectation states theory is, in many ways, a textbook example of a theoretical research program. It is deductive, programmatic, formalized mathematically, cumulative, precise, and predictive; and its propositions have been subjected to rigorous evaluation.
