We present an axiomatic model depicting the choice behavior of a self-interest seeking moral individual over random allocation procedures. Individual preferences are decomposed into a self-interest component and a component representing the individual's moral value judgment. Each component has a...

In this article we study behaviorally consistent stopping rules in an unbounded search from a known distribution with no recall and with positive search cost. We show that if the searcher's preferences are quasi-convex in the probabilities, then behaviorally consistent search strategies in the...

Within the framework of expected utility theory with rank-dependent probabilities, the authors present a hypothesis concerning the shape of the probability transformation function. This hypothesis is consistent with the "preference reversals" phenomenon. In particular, it is consistent with the...
