We present the first calibration of quantum decision theory (QDT) to an empirical data set. The data comprise 91 …) the utility factor with a stochastic version of cumulative prospect theory (logit-CPT), and (b) the attraction factor with …

In this paper, I use the standard machinery of dynamic general equilibrium models to generate a rich class of probabilities and discuss their properties. This class includes probabilities consistent with Bayes' rule and known non-Bayesian rules. If the prior support is correctly specified, I...

We describe a methodology for making counterfactual predictions when the information held by strategic agents is a latent parameter. The analyst observes behavior which is rationalized by a Bayesian model in which agents maximize expected utility, given partial and differential information...

A hypothesis of uncertain future was created and first applied in the field of utility and prospect theories. An extension of application of the hypothesis to the field of forecasting is considered in the article. The concept of inevitability of unforeseen events is a part of the hypothesis of...

Prediction markets for future events are increasingly common and they often trade several contracts for the same event. This paper considers the distribution of a normative risk-neutral trader who, given any portfolio of contracts traded on the event, would choose not to reallocate that...

Facing climate change, seasonal forecasts, and weather warnings are increasingly important to warn the public of the risk of extreme climate conditions. However, being confronted with inaccurate forecast systems may undermine individuals' responsiveness in the long run. Using an online...
