Preference reversals between choice and valuation are typically studied with probabilities or time delays. I extend them to social distances document their existence in this new domain.

Preference Reversals Under Ambiguity
Preference reversals have been widely studied using risky or riskless gambles. However, little is known about preference reversals under ambiguity. We asked subjects to make a binary choice between ambiguous P-bets and ambiguous $-bets and elicited their willingness to accept. Subjects then performed the same two tasks with risky bets, where the probability of winning for a given risky bet is t...
متن کاملPreference Reversals for Ambiguity Aversion
T paper finds preference reversals in measurements of ambiguity aversion, even if psychological and informational circumstances are kept constant. The reversals are of a fundamentally different nature than the reversals found before because they cannot be explained by context-dependent weightings of attributes. We offer an explanation based on Sugden’s random-reference theory, with different el...
متن کاملPreference Reversals and Probabilistic Choice
Preference reversals occur when different (but formally equivalent) elicitation methods reveal conflicting preferences over two alternatives. This paper shows that when people have fuzzy preferences i.e. when they choose in a probabilistic manner, their observed decisions can generate systematic preference reversals. A simple model of probabilistic choice and valuation can account for a higher ...
متن کاملLevi’s Account of Preference Reversals
This paper argues that Levi’s account of preference reversals is only a limited success. Levisucceeds in showing that an agent acting in accord with his theory may exhibit reversals.Nevertheless, the specific account that Levi presents in order to accommodate the behaviorof experimental subjects appears to be disconfirmed by available evidence.

متن کاملParametrizing the Evaluability Hypothesis of Preference Reversals
We investigated cognitive processes under preference reversals between "Separate Evaluation (SE)," wherein each multiattribute choice alternative is evaluated in isolation, and "Joint Evaluation (JE)," wherein choice alternatives are evaluated simultaneously. Previous account for this phenomenon hypothesized that decision makers pay attention to specific features of choice alternatives dependin...
