Almost stochastic dominance allows small violations of stochastic dominance rules to avoid situations where most decision makers prefer one alternative to another but stochastic dominance cannot rank them. While the idea behind almost stochastic dominance is quite promising, it has not caught on...

We examine insurance markets with two types of customers: those who regret suboptimal decisions and those who don.t. In this setting, we characterize the equilibria under hidden information about the type of customers and hidden action. We show that both pooling and separating equilibria can...

The literature has pointed out that many decision makers could exhibit some degree of risk lovingness. Yet, it still lacks a suitable performance index which is consistent with the preferences of all of them, i.e., the preferred project has a higher score. To fulfill this need, our paper...

We investigate the use of exploding offers in job hiring situations via behavioral experiments. The pro-poser chooses between issuing an exploding or extended offer, while the responder waits for a better out-side alternative. Whereas an exploding offer must be accepted or rejected before...

Probabilistic forecasts are necessary for robust decisions in the face of uncertainty. The M5 Uncertainty competition required participating teams to forecast nine quantiles for unit sales of various products at various aggregation levels and for different time horizons. This paper evaluates the...

This paper suggests a new normative approach for combining beliefs. We call it the evidence-first method. Instead of aggregating credences alone, as the prevailing approaches, we focus instead on eliciting a group's full probability distribution on the basis of the evidence available to its...
