In a simple model where agents have ordinal and interpersonally noncomparable subjective expected utility preferences over uncertain future incomes, we analyze the implications of equity, efficiency, separability, and social rationality. Our efficiency conditions are fairly weak, because there...

The literature on social preferences provides overwhelming evidence of departures from pure self-interest of individuals. Experiments show that people care about others' well-being and their relative standing. This paper investigates whether this type of behavior persists when risk comes into...

We assess the empirical validity of the overall theoretical framework of other-regarding preferences by focusing on those preference axioms that are common to all the prominent theories of outcome-based other-regarding preferences. This common set of preference axioms leads to a testable...

This paper theoretically and experimentally studies decision-making in risky and social environments. We explore the interdependence of individual risk attitudes and social preferences in form of inequality aversion as two decisive behavioral determinants in such contexts. Our model and the data...

This work studies the impact of uncertainty on an agent's decision-making process in an interdependent preference context. Mainly, it analyses the influence of society on the agent's consumption level when the agent is uncertain about the consumption level of the society. This issue is modeled...

In this study, we present a behavioral definition of betrayal aversion with sources of uncertainty and develop a framework for various trust games, including context dependence, communication, and pressure. In our framework, attitudes toward betrayal aversion depend on the perception of...
