A stochastic model for assessing the utility of chance

We consider the problem of assessing the utility of chance. One approach is based on offering a decision maker a choice between receiving a fixed chance and a gamble. We investigate theoretical properties of a class of models for the probability of preference of the gamble. We point out an alternative model that models behavior near the boundary more realistically.
