Using a hedonic price model to test prospect theory assertions: The asymmetrical and nonlinear effect of reliability on used car prices

TLDR
In this article, a hedonic price model is proposed to explain used car prices after controlling for observed product differentiation, showing that consumers are risk seeking when used car reliability is below the expected reference value and risk averse when used cars reliability is above the expected value.

Inconsistent behavior in online consumer reviews: The effects of hotel attribute ratings on location

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyze the effect of hotel attribute ratings on location and find that the assessment of location is influenced by the evaluation of other hotel attributes, in line with the loss aversion phenomenon (the consumer punishes the hotel more harshly for dissatisfaction than praises it lavishly for satisfaction).

A policy utility dislocation model based on prospect theory: A case study of promoting policies with low-carbon lifestyle

TL;DR: In this paper, a concept of policy utility dislocation was developed, and a policy utility model was constructed based on prospect theory, which showed that the dislocation can be reduced by increasing the proportion of residents' environmental benefits, government efforts and subsidies, and reducing the cost of implementing a low-carbon lifestyle for residents.

Are lemons really hot potatoes

TL;DR: In this paper, the hazard rate for car ownership spells is modeled by observing the type of unobserved heterogeneity across owners of the same car, and it is shown that the lemons effect is caused by the first owner rather than the manufacturer.

Prospect theory: an analysis of decision under risk

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a critique of expected utility theory as a descriptive model of decision making under risk, and develop an alternative model, called prospect theory, in which value is assigned to gains and losses rather than to final assets and in which probabilities are replaced by decision weights.

TL;DR: In this article, the null hypothesis of no misspecification was used to show that an asymptotically efficient estimator must have zero covariance with its difference from a consistent but asymptonically inefficient estimator, and specification tests for a number of model specifications in econometrics.

Rational choice and the framing of decisions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors trace the violations of the rational theory of choice to the rules that govern the framing of decision and to the psychological principles of evaluation embodied in prospect theory, and argue that these rules are normatively essential but descriptively invalid.
