Summary. Suppose that an economic agent is
100% certain that uncertainty she faces is characterized by a particular probability measure, but that she has a fear that, with
100% chance, her conviction is completely wrong and she is left perfectly ignorant about the true measure in the present as well as in the future. This situation is often called
-contamination of confidence. The purpose of this paper is to provide a simple set of behavioral axioms under which the decision-makers preference is represented by the Choquet expected utility with the
-contamination of confidence.Received: 25 November 2002, Revised: 15 November 2004, JEL Classification Numbers:

In this paper an overview of inference methods for continuous-time stochastic volatility models observed at discrete times is presented. It includes estimation methods for both parametric and nonparametric models that are completely or partially observed in a variety of situations where the data might be nonlinear functions of the components of the model and/or contaminated with observation noise. In each case, the main reported methods are presented, making emphasis on underlying ideas, theoretical properties of the estimators (bias, consistency, efficient, etc.), and the viability of their implementation to solve actual problems in finance. 相似文献

Pricing farm-level agricultural insurance: a Bayesian approach 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vitor Augusto Ozaki 《Empirical Economics》2009,36(2):231-242
This paper applies Hierarchical Bayesian Models to price farm-level yield insurance contracts. This methodology considers
the temporal effect, the spatial dependence and spatio-temporal models. One of the major advantages of this framework is that
an estimate of the premium rate is obtained directly from the posterior distribution. These methods were applied to a farm-level
data set of soybean in the State of the Paraná (Brazil), for the period between 1994 and 2003. The model selection was based
on a posterior predictive criterion. This study improves considerably the estimation of the fair premium rates considering
the small number of observations.

This paper investigates what encourages consumers to adopt a green electricity tariff. When people decide to adopt an innovation, such as green electricity, they consider not only functionality, usability, costs and intended outcomes, but also what the innovation means to them, for example, the way it reflects their identity, image, memberships, values and norms. The study reviews the theoretical frameworks of innovation adoption and consumption, and cognitive and normative behaviour, relevant to consumer adoption of pro‐environmental innovations, and develops a research framework. Through focus group discussions, a questionnaire survey with 103 respondents and an interview with 10 people, the study finds that consumers sympathetic to environmental issues do not necessarily adopt green electricity. This is due to lack of strong social norms and personal relevance, inconvenience of switching, uncertainty about the quality of green electricity and lack of accurate information. The implications of these findings for strategy, policy and future research are explored. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment. 相似文献

This paper presents a new framework which generalizes the concept of conditional expectation to mean values which are implicitly defined as unique solutions to some functional equation. We call such a mean value an implicit mean. The implicit mean and its very special example, the quasi-linear mean, have been extensively applied to economics and decision theory. This paper provides a procedure of defining the conditional implicit mean and then analyzes its properties. In particular, we show that the conditional implicit mean is in general “biased” in the sense that an analogue of the law of iterated expectations does not hold and we characterize the quasi-linear mean as the only implicit mean which is “unbiased”. 相似文献

In a discounted expected-utility problem, tomorrow's utilities are aggregated across tomorrow's states by the expectation operator. In our problems, this aggregation is accomplished by a Choquet integral of the form ∫ u d P α , where α specifies uncertainty aversion. We solve all finite-state problems by either a closed form or a finite-dimensional iteration, and show that uncertainty aversion reduces the perceived return on investment, thereby decreasing the saving rate given elastic preferences and increasing the saving rate given inelastic preferences.

Abstract. Observations on Japan's industrial distribution system reveal that many producers maintain both keiretsu and non‐keiretsu channels. An intriguing question then is: what economic rationale underlies such an ambivalent policy? This motivated us to present a model of an incomplete keiretsu system. We find that the collapse of a keiretsu is not necessarily a misfortune for the firms remaining therein: they can turn the situation to their advantage if a keiretsu collapses partially. We show why some firms leave their keiretsu while others remain with it, and determine who the winners are. 相似文献

Under the assumption that a public firm provides goods or services to two markets and that a private firm provides goods or services to one market only, this study examines whether public firms should be privatized. It also investigates how the production quantity of a private firm changes when its degree of privatization increases. We find that when the market share of a duopoly market is large (small), partial privatization (nationalization) is socially preferable. We also find that the quantity produced by the private firm does not always increase along with the degree of privatization. 相似文献
