Axiomatic Characterization of the Quadratic Scoring Rule

In the evaluation of experiments often the problem arises how to compare the predictive success of competing probabilistic theories. The quadratic soring rule can be used for this purpose. Originally this rule has been proposed as an incentive compatible elicitation method for probabilistic expert judgements. It is shown that up to a positive linear transformation, the quadratic scoring rule is characterized by five desirable properties.
