论文摘要
我们表明,在可行的背景风险水平下,没有风险的选择理论(例如预期效用理论,前景理论或依赖等级的效用)可以同时满足以下三种经济假设:(i)决策者对小赌博的风险避免风险,(ii)他们尊重随机统治力,以及(iii)。
We show that under plausible levels of background risk, no theory of choice under risk -- such as expected utility theory, prospect theory, or rank dependent utility -- can simultaneously satisfy the following three economic postulates: (i) Decision makers are risk-averse over small gambles, (ii) they respect stochastic dominance, and (iii) they account for background risk.
