Differentiating ambiguity and ambiguity attitude. Ghirardato, P., Maccheroni, F., & Marinacci, M. Journal of Economic Theory, 118:133--173, 2004. abstract bibtex The objective of this paper is to show how ambiguity, and a decision maker (DM)'s response to it, can be modelled formally in the context of a general decision model. We introduce a relation derived from the DM's preferences, called "unambiguous preference", and show that it can be represented by a set of probabilities. We provide such set with a simple differential characterization, and argue that it is a behavioral representation of the "ambiguity" that the DM may perceive. Given such revealed ambiguity, we provide a representation of ambiguity attitudes. We also characterize axiomatically a special case of our decision model, the "$\alpha$-maxmin" expected utility model. © 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
