Additive Utility in Prospect Theory [PDF]

open access: yesManagement Science, 2009
Prospect theory is currently the main descriptive theory of decision under uncertainty. It generalizes expected utility by introducing nonlinear decision weighting and loss aversion. A difficulty in the study of multiattribute utility under prospect theory is to determine when an attribute yields a gain or a loss.

A test of prospect theory

Prospect theory and liquidation decisions

Journal of Economic Theory, 2005
We solve a liquidation problem for an agent with preferences consistent with the prospect theory of Kahneman and Tversky (1978). We find that the agent is willing to hold a risky project with a relatively inferior Sharpe ratio if the project is currently making losses, and intends to liquidate it when it breaks even.

Composite Prospect Theory: A proposal to combine ‘prospect theory’ and ‘cumulative prospect theory’ [PDF]

open access: possible, 2010
Evidence shows that (i) people overweight low probabilities and underweight high probabilities, but (ii) ignore events of extremely low probability and treat extremely high probability events as certain. The main alternative decision theories, rank dependent utility (RDU) and cumulative prospect theory (CP) incorporate (i) but not (ii).

Prospect Theory

2010
Prospect Theory: For Risk and Ambiguity, first published in 2010, provided the first comprehensive and accessible textbook treatment of the way decisions are made both when we have the statistical probabilities associated with uncertain future events (risk) and when we lack them (ambiguity).
