Transaction Analysis: A Framework and an Application to Insurance Decisons

Baruch Fischhoff

Journal of Risk and Uncertainty, 1993, vol. 7, issue 1, 53-69

Abstract: Creating or interpreting people's choices requires attention to a great many details. A framework initially presented in this journal (Fischhoff and Furby, 1988) specifies those details. It is applied here to several insurance-related choices appearing in Johnson, et al. (1993) and elsewhere. These specific applications suggest alternative explanations for the results of these studies. The approach as a whole provides an alternative perspective regarding reliance on experiments and markets to study people's preferences. Copyright 1993 by Kluwer Academic Publishers
