摘要: The correct control of security often depends on decisions under uncertainty. Using quantified information about risk, one may hope to achieve more precise by making better decisions. We discuss and examine how Prospect Theory, the major descriptive theory risky decisions, predicts such will go wrong if problems be corrected.
