Generalized Almost Stochastic Dominance
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. However, the commonly used integral condition for almost seconddegree stochastic dominance does not map into the corresponding classes of increasing concave utility functions with bounded der...
متن کاملAn Empirical Method of Comparing Risks Using Stochastic Dominance
The need to evaluate risks, in either the investment or the insurance component of business, is a primary task of the actuary. Mathematical constructs for risk assessment using expected utility theory are problematic for practical use. One reason is that the elicitation of the utility function is difficult or impossible in most situations. Second, data related to risk choices contain noise that...
متن کاملGeneralized stochastic dominance and bad outcome aversion
Incomplete preferences over lotteries on a finite set of alternatives satisfying, besides independence and continuity, a property called bad outcome aversion are considered. These preferences are characterized in terms of their specific multi-expected utility representations (cf. Dubra et al., 2004), and can be seen as generalized stochastic dominance preferences. JEL-classification: C0, D0
متن کاملAn empirical examination
This empirical study examines the relationship between total quality management (TQM) and innovation performance and compares the nature of this relationship against quality performance. The empirical data were obtained from a survey of 194 managers in Australian industry encompassing both manufacturing and non-manufacturing sectors. The structural equation modeling technique was used to examin...
متن کاملEffi cient Diversification under Generalized Almost Stochastic Dominance
Stochastic dominance (SD) has been identified as an important method for effi cient diversification. However, the SD rule is too rigid in that it remains silent on some obvious preferences between two distributions for most investors as pointed out by Leshno and Levy (2002). Thus the purpose of this paper is to derive an effi cient frontier according to generalized almost stochastic dominance (...
