[Jdm-society] Attraction and compromise effect in choice under risk

[Kusev, Petko]

Dear Daniel,

We have conducted 4 expts. on compromise and attraction effects with gambles - choice under risk (together with Peter Ayton, Paul van Schaik and Nick Chater) as part of our research grant. I believe I would be able to send you the manuscript soon.


Best wishes,
Petko

Hi,  I am almost certain to be displaying unacceptable ignorance, but I
do not know if the attraction/compromise effects have ever been tested
for gambles.  I mean, if there is a choice between (say) a .3 chance of
$50 and a .7 chance of $10, will preferences shift towards the .3/$10
gamble if a .25 chance of $50 is also available?  (And likewise for the
compromise effect).  I have tried the usual electronic methods of
finding out, but I only find applications of the effects to riskless
choice.
