What Are Asset Demand Tests of Expected Utility Really Testing?*
指出金融资产需求检验的偏好域与传统二元彩票实验室检验不同，并推导了或有债权偏好可用预期效用函数表示的新公理集，还说明了扩展到更一般风险前景所需的额外公理。
Assuming the classic contingent claim setting, a number of financial asset demand tests of Expected Utility have been developed and implemented in experimental settings. However, the domain of preferences of these asset demand tests differ from the mixture space of distributions assumed in the traditional binary lottery laboratory tests of von Neumann–Morgenstern Expected Utility preferences. We derive new sets of axioms for preferences over contingent claims to be representable by an Expected Utility function. We also indicate the additional axioms required to extend the representation to the more general case of preferences over risky prospects.
