Multivariate Discrete First Order Stochastic Dominance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper characterizes the principle of first order stochastic dominance in a multivariate discrete setting. We show that a distribution  f first order stochastic dominates distribution g if and only if  f can be obtained from g by iteratively shifting density from one outcome to another that is better.

Violations of first-order stochastic dominance as salience effects [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics, 2015
Abstract In contradiction to expected utility theory, various studies find that splitting events or attributes into subevents and subattributes can reverse a decision maker’s choices. Most notably, these effects can induce first-order stochastic dominated choices. Such violations of first-order stochastic dominance are framing effects, which expected

Trading Cryptocurrencies Using Second Order Stochastic Dominance

open access: yesMathematics, 2021
This research is the first attempt to customize a trading system that is based on second order stochastic dominance (SSD) to five known cryptocurrencies’ daily data: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Binance Coin, and Cardano.

Violations of dominance in decision-making

open access: yesBusiness Research, 2019
A key premise underlying most of the economic literature is that rational decision-makers will choose dominant strategies over dominated alternatives. However, prior literature in various disciplines including business, psychology, and economics document

Valid inequalities and restrictions for stochastic programming problems with first order stochastic dominance constraints [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Programming, 2007
Stochastic dominance relations are well studied in statistics, decision theory and economics. Recently, there has been significant interest in introducing dominance relations into stochastic optimization problems as constraints. In the discrete case, stochastic optimization models involving second order stochastic dominance constraints can be solved by

Risk Aversion, Loss Aversion, and the Demand for Insurance

open access: yesRisks, 2018
In this paper we analyze insurance demand when the utility function depends both upon final wealth and the level of losses or gains relative to a reference point.

Stochastic programming with multivariate second order stochastic dominance constraints with applications in portfolio optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this paper we study optimization problems with multivariate stochastic dominance constraints where the underlying functions are not necessarily linear. These problems are important in multicriterion decision making, since each component of vectors can

Optimal Cyclical Behavior of Monetary Policy of Iran: Using a DSGE Model [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Economic Studies, 2018
The countercyclical monetary policy is a policy that economists recommend to adopt in order to slow down the economic fluctuations. The aim of this study is to address the question that, in the presence of fiscal dominance and considering institutional ...
