Utilizing Vroom’s Expectancy Theory as the framework, the research assesses the responses of 375 nurse assistant students in the state of Illinois to evaluate the self-report of the constructs of Vroom’s Expectancy theory in relation to their performance on a standardized high stakes test.展开更多
This paper characterizes the optimal solution of subjective expected utility with S-shaped utility function, by using the prospect theory (PT). We also prove the existence of Arrow-Debreu equilibrium.
