Scelte in condizioni di incertezza: il contributo della Behavioural Economics

Roberto Dell'Anno

Rivista di Politica Economica, 2006, vol. 96, issue 2, 179-218

Abstract: The paper addresses the limits and alternatives to the expected utility theory. It points out the link between Complexity Theory and Behavioural Economics (BE). In particular, the BE is the combination of psychology and economics. It permits to investigate agents' decision process if human limitations and complications are considered. Some paradoxes of the expected utility are presented and an unorthodox approach to decision under risk is discussed: the cumulative prospect theory.
