In this thesis we consider two comparative statics questions of changes in risk. The first question concerns situations … where an individual faces some risk and has no control over the uncertain environment. In these situations we ask what kind … of changes in risk will cause the individual's expected utility to increase. The second comparative statics question …

A viable safeguards system includes among other things the development and use of indices which trigger various courses of action. The usual limit of error calculation provides such an index. The classical approach is one of constructing tests which, under certain assumptions, make the...
