Preference for randomization: Empirical and experimental evidence
Dwenger, Nadja; Kübler, Dorothea; Weizsäcker, Georg - 2013
We investigate violations of consequentialism in the form of the stochastic dominance property. The property is shared by many theories of choice and implies that the decision-maker prefers receiving the best outcome for sure over all lotteries that involve multiple outcomes. We run experiments...

Chain stability in trading networks
Hatfield, John William; Kominers, Scott Duke; Nichifor, … - In: Theoretical Economics 16 (2021) 1, pp. 197-234
In a general model of trading networks with bilateral contracts, we propose a suitably adapted chain stability concept that plays the same role as pairwise stability in two-sided settings. We show that chain stability is equivalent to stability if all agents' preferences are jointly fully...
