A Stochastic Expected Utility Theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a new model that explains the violations of expected utility theory through the role of random errors, and analyzes decision making under risk when individuals make random errors when they compute expected utilities.

Models of Stochastic Choice and Decision Theories: Why Both are Important for Analyzing Decisions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors select a menu of seven popular decision theories and embed each theory in five models of stochastic choice including tremble, Fechner and random utility model.

Stochastic expected utility theory
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a decision theory of how individuals make random errors when they compute the expected utility of risky lotteries, which explains many stylized empirical facts such as the fourfold pattern of risk attitudes, common consequence effect (Allais paradox), common ratio effect and violations of betweenness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Back to the St. Petersburg Paradox
TL;DR: The conventional parameterizations of cumulative prospect theory do not explain the St Petersburg paradox, so the power coefficient of an individual's utility function must be lower than the power coefficients of an individuals' probability weighting function.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contest Success Function with the Possibility of a Draw: Axiomation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an axiomatization of the contest success function when there is a draw and the sum of winning probabilities across all contestants is non-additive.
