Discriminating among probability weighting functions using adaptive design optimization [PDF]
Probability weighting functions relate objective probabilities and their subjective weights, and play a central role in modeling choices under risk within cumulative prospect theory. While several different parametric forms have been proposed, their qualitative similarities make it challenging to discriminate among them empirically.

Prospect theory: A parametric analysis of functional forms in Brazil
This study aims to analyze risk preferences in Brazil based on prospect theory by estimating the risk aversion parameter of the expected utility theory (EUT) for a select sample, in addition to the value and probability function parameter, assuming ...

Music-evoked incidental happiness modulates probability weighting during risky lottery choices
We often make decisions with uncertain consequences. The outcomes of the choices we make are usually not perfectly predictable but probabilistic and the probabilities can be known or unknown.

Risk Attitude in the DuLong Minority Ethnicity of China
Prospect theory predicts a four-fold risk attitude, which means that people are risk seeking for low-probability gain and high-probability loss and risk averse for low-probability loss and high-probability gain because they overweight probability when it

Our understanding of the decisions made under scenarios where both descriptive and experience-based information are available is very limited. Underweighting of small probabilities was observed in the gain domain when both description and experience were

Aims: Polypharmacy is well known to affect cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults. However, the effect of polypharmacy on cognitive function in patients with newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease remains unknown.

A Testing Method of Probability Weighting Functions From an Axiomatic Perspective
This study presents a testing approach to examine various models of probability weighting functions that are considered nonlinear functions of probability in behavioral decision theory, such as prospect theory.

We study whether probability weighting is observed when individuals are presented with a series of choices between lotteries consisting of real non-monetary adverse outcomes, electric shocks.

Leaf segmentation and tracking using probabilistic parametric active contours [PDF]
Active contours or snakes are widely used for segmentation and tracking. These techniques require the minimization of an energy function, which is generally a linear combination of a data fit term and a regularization term.
