Probability weighting is one of the cornerstones of decision-making theories accommodating gambling preferences. This paper examines its relevance to explaining employee stock option exercise behavior. We characterized the optimal exercise policy for a representative employee with Rank-Dependent...

This research provides an alternative framework for the analysis of employee stock option exercise patterns. It develops a binomial model where the exercise decision obeys to a policy that maximizes the expected utility to a representative employee exhibiting preferences as described by the...

This research provides an alternative framework for the valuation of standard employee stock options and for the analysis of exercise behavior patterns. It develops a binomial model where the exercise decision obeys to a policy that maximizes the expected utility to a representative employee...

Le thème central de cet ouvrage porte sur l'adéquation des représentations théoriques du comportement décisionnel des agents et sur ses implications pour la pertinence des mesures de la juste valeur des instruments financiers. L'ouvrage vise en premier lieu à mettre en perspective le rôle...

This paper examines the incentives from stock options for loss-averse employees subject to probability weighting. Employing the certainty equivalence principle, I built on insights from Cumulative Prospect Theory (CPT) to derive a continuous time model to value options from the perspective of a...
