摘要

决策理论可以用来测试决策的逻辑——人们可能会问,一组给定的决策是否可以通过决策理论模型来证明。事实上,在委托代理的情况下,这样的理由可能是必要的——投资基金的经理可能会被问到她在评估资产时使用了什么信念,政府可能会被问到一系列的规章制度是否连贯。在本文中,我们讨论了哪些不确定行为评估集合可以在最大期望效用准则下同时被一组概率所证明。我们与金融学基本定理(对于贝叶斯代理的特殊情况)建立了联系,并揭示了偏好结果。

What were you thinking? Decision theory as coherence test
Decision theory can be used to test the logic of decision making—one may ask whether a given set of decisions can be justified by a decision‐theoretic model. Indeed, in principal–agent settings, such justifications may be required—a manager of an investment fund may be asked what beliefs she used when valuing assets and a government may be asked whether a portfolio of rules and regulations is coherent. In this paper we ask which collections of uncertain‐act evaluations can be simultaneously justified under the maxmin expected utility criterion by a single set of probabilities. We draw connections to the fundamental theorem of finance (for the special case of a Bayesian agent) and revealed‐preference results.
