Agents face an ambiguous risk of biodiversity survival as well as ambiguous expected losses from its extinction. As a collectivity, agents are faced with the option of privately funding the protection of biodiversity for biomedical research. We propose two evolutionary models of threshold public...

We present an experiment in which we test for the effect of participating in a social exchange exercise on revealed … risk and ambiguity preferences. In our experiments, subjects make choices over lotteries that reveal their risk and … ambiguity preferences. They then participate with a small group in an unstructured on-line chat. After the chat, they reconsider …

We experimentally test whether risk aversion or ambiguity aversion can explain decisions in a learning-by-doing game …. We first measure subjects' preferences toward risk and ambiguity, and then use these measures to predict behavior in the … game. We find that ambiguity averse subjects pay more often to resolve ambiguity, and we find that less risk averse …

Subjects submitted strategies for playing a public good game. The strategies interacted with each other in a computer simulation. They could be revised and resubmitted for a second and a third simulation round. The strategies' average contribution to the public good increased from one simulation...
