Undescribable Contingencies *
We develop a model of complex undescribable contingencies. These are contingencies that are understood by economic agents — their consequences and probabilities are known — but are such that every description of such events necessarily leaves out relevant features that have a non-negligible impact on the parties’ expected utilities. Using a simple co-insurance problem as backdrop, we introduce ...
متن کاملFraming Contingencies ∗
We introduce a model of decision making under uncertainty which incorporates framing effects for how contingencies are described. The primitive is a family of preferences, indexed by partitions of the state space. Each partition corresponds to a description of the state space. We axiomatically characterize the following partition-dependent expected utility representation. The decision maker has...
