Is your decision making different, under or without uncertainty?,“Greed is good,” yelled Michael Douglas in the movie Wall Street (1987). But, are we really so greed, and selfish?,Instruction of the game

Decision making must obey on the axiom.,“Rationality does not say that the individuals actual goals are rational in some larger ethical, social, or human sense.,One-to-one,合理的,Friedman, M., 1953.

8、Economics. The University of Chicago Press,With regard to this matter, Friedmans as-if hypothesis (Friedman, 1953) may provide great help. He asserts that a theory is useful when its objects behave as if they follow the theory. He explains this assertion by providing the example of the law of fallin
9、g bodies in physics. The distance traveled by a falling body, s (in feet), in any specified time, t (in seconds), is given by the well-known formula: s =gt2, where g is the acceleration of a body dropped in a vacuum, which is constant. Since g is a value under a vacuum, the formula assumes a vacuum.
10、 However, in the actual atmosphere, bodies fall as if the formula were valid. With regard to this aspect, he provides the following explanation. under a wide range of circumstances, bodies that fall in the actual atmosphere behave as if they were falling in a vacuum. The formula is accepted because
11、it works, not because we live in an approximate vacuum whatever that means.,Friedmans as-if hypothesis,Choice of rules,Rationality without Uncertainty,Homo Economicus and Real People,The assumption of Homo economicus can and should be simply a preliminary step on the road to a more sophisticated mod

13、s of preference order,If the set of alternatives, S, is not finite and non-countable, then additional axioms are required for a utility function to exist: (1) The relation is reflexive: a a (2) The relation is transitive: a b and b c then a c. (3) The relation is complete: for all a and b in S, a b
14、or b a or both. (4) The relation is continuous (if S is a topological space, then for each point x in S, the set of points that are strictly preferred to x and the set of points that x is strictly preferred to are both open).,NOTICE: (i) Together with reflexivity this means it is a preorder (ii) Com
