Systems Analysis of Decision-Making Under Ambiguity With Comparative Out-of-Sample Experimental Study of Geometric Dispersion Theory and Cumulative Prospect Theory

Abstract: In this article, we develop a new descriptive model for ambiguity decision-making called Ambiguity Geometric Dispersion Theory (A-GDT). In out-of-sample predictions, we find that A-GDT is ...
