Description

This Springer publication examines the rank-dependent model as a generalisation of expected utility theory, addressing decades of criticism levelled at the classical EU framework. Economic analysis of choice under uncertainty has long relied on the EU model, yet psychologists have documented extensive evidence that individual decision-making under uncertainty diverges from EU predictions. Applied finance research typically employs simpler mean-variance approaches, reflecting widespread scepticism of traditional utility theory. The 1980s brought a turning point as multiple generalisations of EU emerged, most capable of reconciling psychological evidence with economic principles like transitivity and dominance. This work explores the rank-dependent approach as a framework that preserves essential economic axioms whilst accommodating empirical observations that challenge conventional models, offering scholars and practitioners a more robust foundation for understanding choice behaviour under uncertainty.

Key Features

The rank-dependent model addresses limitations of the classical expected utility framework by incorporating psychological evidence of real-world decision-making patterns.

Springer's treatment preserves core economic principles including transitivity and dominance whilst explaining behaviours that traditional EU theory cannot account for.

This analysis bridges the gap between economic theory and applied finance, moving beyond the simpler mean-variance models commonly used in practical applications.

The book examines how generalised expected utility theory emerged in the 1980s as a response to accumulated criticism and inconsistencies in the original EU model.
