OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

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.
