Journal ArticleDOI
A theory of anticipated utility
TL;DR: In this paper, a cardinal utility theory with an associated set of axioms is presented, which is a generalization of the von Neumann-Morgenstern expected utility theory, which permits the analysis of phenomena associated with the distortion of subjective probability.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the challenge to EU Theory and its challenge to RDEU theory is discussed. But the challenge is not addressed in this article. And it is not discussed in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adverse Selection in Crop Insurance: Actuarial and Asymmetric Information Incentives
TL;DR: In this article, the authors decompose incentives for participation in multiple-parity crop insurance into a risk-aversion incentive, an actuarial or subsidy incentive, and an asymmetric information incentive.

TL;DR: The high levels of water extraction from the Colorado, Murray, Orange and Yellow rivers are shown to be the main cause of reduced flows in these systems as discussed by the authors, and changes in governance are urgently required to preserve the health of these rivers, especially in light of the present and future impacts of climate change.
