This paper proposes a decision-theoretic framework for experiment design. We model experimenters as ambiguity …-averse decision-makers, who make trade-offs between subjective expected performance and robustness. This framework accounts for … sample size is large enough or robustness is an important concern. We illustrate the practical value of such a framework by …

This paper shows that, for CEU preferences, the axioms consquentialism, state independenceand conditional certainty equivalent consistency under updating characterise a family of capacities,called Genralised Neo-Additive Capacities (GNAC). This family contains as special casesamong others...

Ausgangspunkt sind die bekannten empirischen Verstöße gegen Axiome der Bernoulli-Rationalität und die Diskussion um seine präskriptive Ausschließlichkeit. Der Beitrag teilt Nichterwartungsnutzenkalküle in Kategorien ein, die sich für eine Modellierung unterschiedlicher Arten von...
