One of the most well-known models of non-expected utility is Gul (1991)'s model of Disappointment Aversion. This model …, however, is defined implicitly, as the solution to a functional equation; its explicit utility representation is unknown …

This paper studies a model of mechanism design with transfers where agents' preferences need not be quasilinear. In such a model, (1) we characterize dominant strategy incentive compatible mechanisms using a monotonicity property; (2) we establish a revenue uniqueness result: for every dominant...

Among the reasons behind the choice behavior of an individual taking a stochastic form are her potential indifference or indecisiveness between certain alternatives, and/or her willingness to experiment in the sense of occasionally deviating from choosing a best alternative in order to give a...

On the other hand, there is no evidence that the Wold-Juréen (1953) utility function has ever been … the Wold-Juréen (1953) utility function.

Economic modeling of Universal Basic Income (UBI) often fails to consider how individuals' utility calculations shift … Utility Functions and Tax Revenue (Neumärker, B., Weinel, J., 2022).
