Ellsberg task as a one-person decision problem. We challenge this view: Instead of seeing the Ellsberg task as a one …-person decision problem, it can be perceived as a two-player game. One player chooses among the bets. The second player determines the … similar to the zero-sum game, suggesting that subjects view the standard Ellsberg experiment as a game against the …

Higher order risk preferences are important determinants of economic behaviour. We apply behavioural insights to this topic: we measure higher order risk preferences for pure gains and pure losses by controlling the reference point. We find a reflection effect not only for second order risk...

Andreoni and Sprenger (in press) report evidence that distinct utility functions govern choices under certainty and risk. I investigate the robustness of their result to the experimental design. I find that the effect disappears completely when a multiple price list is used instead of a convex...
