Taylor & Francis Ltd Decisions Risk and Reward
Book SynopsisIn recent years leading figures in a variety of fields - political, financial, medical, and organizational - have become acutely aware of the need to effectively incorporate aspects of risk into their decision-making. This book addresses a wide range of contemporary issues in decision research, such as how individuals deal with uncertainty and complexity, gender-based differences in decision-making, what determines decision performance and why people choose risky activities.The book presents results from academic research carried out over the last twenty years. A common theme is the study of decisions made in horserace betting markets, a research medium which offers a rich insight into decision-making in general and one which enjoys particular methodological advantages over laboratory-based simulations. This set of naturalistic studies explores the variety of individual motivations for betting, how people perceive and respond to the presence of uncertainty, the challenges ofTable of ContentsPART I Motivation for betting and risk taking 1 Towards an explanation of betting as a leisure pursuit 2 Costing excitement in leisure betting 3 Successful betting strategies: evidence from the UK off-course betting market PART II The impact of complexity on decision-making behaviour 4 The complex decision: insights from naturalistic research 5 An empirical study of the impact of complexity on participation in horse-race betting 6 A profit model for estimating the effect of complexity on risk taking 7 Risk strategy under task complexity: a multivariate analysis of behaviour in a naturalistic setting 8 Decision-making under risk: effect of complexity on performance PART III Gender differences in decision-making behaviour 9 Gender and DSS design: the research implications 10 Male and female betting behaviour – new perspectives 11 Gender-based differences in leisure behaviour: performance, risk taking and confidence in off-course betting 12 Decision-making, risk and gender: are managers different? PART IV The use of information by decision-makers and deviations from rational economic behaviour 13 A violation of dominance and the consumption value of gambling 14 Exploring decision-makers’ use of price information in a speculative market 15 Gluck’s Second Law: an empirical investigation of horse-race betting in early and late races 16 Investigating the roots of the favourite–longshot bias: an analysis of decision-making by supply- and demand-side agents in parallel betting markets 17 Market efficiency analysis requires a sensitivity to market characteristics: some observations on a recent study of betting market efficiency 18 Efficiency characteristics of a market for state-contingent claims 19 Market ecology and decision behaviour in state-contingent claims markets 20 Calibration of subjective probability judgements in a naturalistic setting

Taylor & Francis Ltd Economics Rational Choice and Normative
Book SynopsisFollowing Amartya Senâs insistence to expand the framework of rational choice theory by taking into account ânon-utility information,â economists, political scientists and philosophers have recently concentrated their efforts in analysing the issues related to rights, freedom, diversity intentions and equality. Thomas Boylan and Ruvin Gekker have gathered essays that reflect this trend.The particular themes addressed in this volume include: the measurement of diversity and freedom, formal analysis of individual rights and intentions, judgment aggregation under constraints and strategic manipulation in fuzzy environments. Some papers in the volume also deal with philosophical aspects of normative social choice.Table of ContentsI Diversity, rights, norms and intentions, 1. What is diversity? Nicholas Gravel, 2. Intentions, decisions and rationality Martin van Hees and Olivier Roy, 3. Waiving and exercising rights in the theory of social situations Ruvin Gekka, 4.
