ambiguity averse relation. First, we define two notions of more ambiguous with respect to such a class. A more ambiguous (I) act … makes an ambiguity averse decision maker (DM) worse off but does not affect the welfare of an ambiguity neutral DM. A more … ambiguous (II) act adversely affects a more ambiguity averse DM more, as measured by the compensation they require to switch …

We propose and axiomatize a new model of preferences that achieves a separation between ambiguity, identified as a … characteristic of the decision maker's subjective information, and ambiguity attitude, a characteristic of the decision maker …

Are foundations of models of ambiguity-sensitive preferences too flawed to be usefully applied to economic models?  Al …-Najjar and Weinstein do not apply to quite a few of the ambiguity preference models of more recent vintage, and therefore to that … extent do not undermine the foundational aspects or applicability of ambiguity models in general.  Second, we argue the focus …

This paper axiomatizes an intertemporal version of the Smooth Ambiguity decision model developed in Klibanoff …, Marinacci, and Mukerji (2005). A key feature of the model is that it achieves a separation between ambiguity, identified as a … characteristic of the decision maker's subjective beliefs, and ambiguity attitude, a characteristic of the decision maker's tastes …

This chapiter of a collective book is dedicated to classical decision models under uncertainty, i.e. under situations where events do not have "objective" probabilities with which the Decision Marker agrees. We present successively the two main theories, their axiomatic, the interpretation and...

We report a portfolio-choice experiment that enables us to estimate parametric models of ambiguity aversion at the … of ambiguity aversion, one kinked and one smooth, that encompass many of the theoretical models in the literature. Each … specification includes two parameters: one for ambiguity attitudes and another for risk attitudes. We also estimate a three …
