OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Decision-makers often use procedures to evaluate risky prospects. This paper focuses on the procedure of merging separate outcomes. I offer a procedural foundation for expected utility and models of rank-dependence, betweenness, and complexity aversion. Expected utility is characterized by uniformity and costlessness of the procedure across prospects. Relaxing uniformity characterizes rank-dependence and betweenness, while relaxing costlessness characterizes complexity aversion.
