Newsvendor decision making is ubiquitous in the global economy. Very often, newsvendor decision makers are overworked; thus, making ordering decisions is one of myriad things on their plate. They do not have the energy to focus solely on the newsvendor decisions and yet have to make them under...

In this paper, we discuss discrete choice theory and show how this theory can be used to quantify learning effects in experimental studies. We argue why the ordering quantities in newsvendor experiments should follow a multinomial logit distribution. We provide a robustness analysis to explain...

Before a group can take a decision, its members must agree on a mechanism to aggregate individual preferences. In this paper we present the results of an experiment on the influence of private payoff information and the role of the available alternatives on individuals’ mechanism choices in...

This paper provides a systematic analysis of individual attitudes towards ambiguity, based on laboratory experiments. The design of the analysis allows to capture individual behavior across various levels of ambiguity, ranging from low to high. Attitudes towards risk and attitudes towards...
