RPS(1) Preferences

Abstract: We consider a model for decision making based on an adaptive, k-period, learning process where the priors are selected according to Von Neumann-Morgenstern expected utility principle. A preference relation between two prospects is introduced, defined by the condition which prospect is selected more often. We show that the new preferences have similarities with the preferences obtained by Kahneman and Tversky (1979) in the context of the prospect theory. Additionally, we establish that in the limit of large learning period, the new preferences coincide with the expected utility principle.
