Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This note corrects a mistake in Volij (2002) “Payoff equivalence in sealed bid auctions and the dual theory of choice under risk,” Economics Letters, 76(2), 231–237. It shows the payoff equivalence of a family of auctions when risk-averse bidders behave according to Yaari's dual theory of choice under risk.
