Expectations are central to models of economic and financial decision-making. Yet in practice, individuals are often inattentive and, when asked, report fragile, context-dependent expectations that are only weakly linked to decisions. This raises the question to what extent they hold such...

This paper introduces a novel Payoff-Trolley dilemma task, where other participants' payoffs were at stake on the main or sidetrack in a trolley dilemma. Different scenarios varied the number of "others' payoffs" on the sidetrack and main track in ways that helped identify more clearly immoral...

Background: Despite advances in monitoring and forecasting systems, natural disasters continue to cause significant human losses. During the response phase, fast decisions are required to allocate limited resources, particularly rescue helicopters, which play a key role in reaching inaccessible...

This paper develops an axiomatic framework for decision making when preferences depend not only on the current alternative but also on the past frequency with which alternatives have been chosen. We identify key independence axioms that characterize frequency-dependent preferences. In addition,...

There are repeatedly raised concerns that marketing and consumer research often neglects to implement realistic studies that foster generalizability to real-world contexts, thereby limiting their findings’ practical relevance. Representative of this issue, confidence in context effects’...

Advice plays a central role in health, personal finance, and energy-efficiency decisions. We study how a benevolent expert should design verifiable advice - such as whether to commission a diagnostic test of different accuracy - when the agent is behaviorally biased, either neglecting...

We investigate and axiomatize preferences that display indifference between deterministic states, but exhibit strict orderings over lotteries over these states. Such preferences might be due to the ability to adopt to states, or a (dis)taste for uncertainty. We derive a representation theorem...

A growing interest in digitalisation provides continuous support for corporate governance in addressing strategic decision-making under uncertain environments. Although an increasing number of studies provide valuable insights and practical implications, limited research examines specific CEO...

Agency-the ability to define one's own goals and make choices to achieve them-is often measured through questions that capture an individual's direct involvement in decision-making. Yet not participating in decision-making may not always imply a lack of power. Drawing on the notion of effective...
