چکیده

The Distribution View provides a model that integrates four 6 distributional concerns in the evaluation of risky prospects. Starting from 7 these concerns, we can generate an ordering over a set of risky prospects, 8 or, starting from an ordering, we can extract a characterization of the 9 underlying distributional concerns. Separability of States and/or Persons 10 for multiple-person risky prospects, for single-person risky prospects and 11 for multiple-person certain prospects are discussed within the model. The 12 Distribution View sheds light on public health policies and provides a 13 framework for the discussion of Parfit’s Priority View for risky prospects. 14

Risk and relative social rank: positional concerns and risky shifts in probabilistic decision-making

Although research indicates that individuals generally favor certain prospects over those whose outcomes are more variable, risk-aversion does not characterize human decision-making across domains. Here, we use an evolutionary perspective to explore the role that concerns with relative position play on preferences for certain versus probabilistic outcomes. Our evolutionary-based hypothesis pred...

Pfanzagl Exchanges Diagnose a Continuity Anomaly Pertinent to Allais' Problem

The principle of choice often expressed as a continuity axiom recommends a single ordering of both riskless and risky prospects. An analytical device contributed by Pfanzagl is extended here to show that riskless versus risky monetary comparisons ought to be more nuanced, even from a perspective sympathetic to the usual axioms. Allais’ example illustrates a related point to oppose the usual the...

Test Power Reduction by Simultaneous Don’t Care Filling and Ordering of Test Patterns Considering Pattern Dependency

Estimating and minimizing the maximum power dissipation during testing is an important task in VLSI circuit realization since the power value affects the reliability of the circuits. Therefore during testing a methodology should be adopted to minimize power consumption. Test patterns generated with –D 1 option of ATALANTA contains don’t care bits (x bits). By suitable filling of don’t cares can...

Prospect Relativity 1 Running Head: PROSPECT RELATIVITY Prospect Relativity: How Choice Options Influence Decision Under Risk

In many theories of decision under risk (e.g., expected utility theory, rank dependent utility theory, and prospect theory) the utility or value of a prospect is independent of other prospects or options in the choice set. The experiments presented here show a large effect of the available options set, suggesting instead that prospects are valued relative to one another. The judged certainty eq...
