We consider decision makers who know that payoff-relevant observations are generated by a process that belongs to a given class M, as posulated by Wald. We incorporate this Waldean piece of objective information within an otherwise subjective setting à la Savage, and show that this leads to a two-stage subjective expected utility model that accounts for both state and model uncertainty.

Abstract

We consider decision makers who know that payoff-relevant observations are generated by a process that belongs to a given class M, as posulated by Wald. We incorporate this Waldean piece of objective information within an otherwise subjective setting à la Savage, and show that this leads to a two-stage subjective expected utility model that accounts for both state and model uncertainty.
