We examine a variety of preference-based definitions of ambiguous events in the context of the smooth ambiguity model … ambiguity model, we show that Ghirardato and Marinacci (2002) would identify the same set of ambiguous and unambiguous events as … more interesting source is that these two definitions can confound non-constant ambiguity attitude and the ambiguity of an …

a single concept of relevance delivers this for a wide range of models, including models that allow for ambiguity … attitude.  We also use symmetry and relevance to provide insight into the foundations of the α-MEU and smooth ambiguity models …

relevant measures as reflecting part of perceived ambiguity, meaning subjective uncertainty about probabilities over states …. Under mild conditions, we show that increases or decreases in ambiguity aversion cannot affect the relevant measures. This … property, necessary for the conclusion that these measures reflect only perceived ambiguity, distinguishes the set of relevant …

We propose and axiomatically characterize dynamically consistent update rules for decision making under ambiguity … of preferences over acts, to be able to reconcile typical behavior in the face of ambiguity (as exemplified by Ellsberg …

As an application of our general result, we … characterize dynamically consistent updating for two important models of ambiguity averse preferences: the ambiguity averse smooth … ambiguity preferences (Klibanoþ, Marinacci and Mukerji [Econometrica 73 2005, pp. 1849-1892]) and the variational preferences …

The α-MEU model and the smooth ambiguity model are two popular models in decision making under ambiguity. However, the …

This paper axiomatizes an intertemporal version of the Smooth Ambiguity decision model developed in Klibanoff …, Marinacci, and Mukerji (2005).
