This paper analyzes optimal policy in setups where both the leader and the follower have doubts about the probability model of uncertainty. I illustrate the methodology in two environments: a) an industry populated with a large firm and many small firms in a competitive fringe, where both types...

Debreu proposed the notion of `least concave utility' as a way to disentangle risk attitudes from the certainty preferences embedded in a von-Neumann Morgenstern index. This paper studies preferences under uncertainty, as opposed to risk, and examines a corresponding decomposition of preference....

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 ambiguity are disentangled, providing pure measures of ambiguity …
