Asset allocation determinants under Cumulative Prospect Theory
In this paper we compute the asset allocation obtained with different parametrizations of Cumulative Prospect Theory; in this settings, Prospect Theory and Expected Utility are seen as special cases. We first look for the optimal portfolio in an artificial financial market, where the asset returns are generated such that each return is endowed with some desired statistical properties (i.e. the ...
متن کاملStochastic Models for Assets Allocation under the Framework of Prospect and Cumulative Prospect Theory
This paper examines the problem of choosing the optimal portfolio for an investor with asymmetric attitude to gains and losses described in the prospect theory of A. Tversky and D. Kahneman. We consider the portfolio optimization problem for an investor who follows the assumptions of the prospect theory and the cumulative prospect theory under conditions on the stochastic behavior both of the p...
متن کاملProspect Theory
Prospect theory is a descriptive theory of how individuals choose among risky alternatives. The theory challenged the conventional wisdom that economic decision makers are rational expected utility maximizers. We present a number of empirical demonstrations that are inconsistent with the classical theory, expected utility, but can be explained by prospect theory. We then discuss the prospect th...
متن کاملProspect Theory
Prospect theory (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979) predictions were examined in light of ethnocentrism and intergroup conflict. An experiment conducted at the outset of the 2003 invasion of Iraq by the U.S., U. K. and their allies explored American and British participants’ preferences for certain versus uncertain gains and losses concerning Iraqi, American, and British lives. In four conditions, parti...
متن کاملAbrupt visual onsets and selective attention: voluntary versus automatic allocation.
The hypothesis that abrupt visual onsets capture attention automatically, as suggested by Yantis and Jonides (1984) was tested in four experiments. A centrally located cue directed attention to one of several stimulus positions in preparation for the identification of a target letter embedded in an array of distractor letters. In all experiments, one stimulus (either the target or one of the di...
