Description

Following the traditional setup of the Allais-type betting task, two behavioral experiments including eight sets of betting tasks were designed using the first set of betting tasks in the Allais paradox as the base template. One set of experiments describes the base rate information of the tasks in the form of probabilistic combinations in order to better restore the decision environment of the traditional Alley-type betting tasks. The other set of experiments were based on Experiment 1, which replaced the probabilistic combination descriptions with frequency representations supplemented with visual images (Colored-ball betting tasks) to again examine the subjects' decision-making.
