The Effect Of Ambiguity Degree And Decision Makers' Roles On Ambiguity Aversion

There is a common phenomenon in ambiguity decision making,ambiguity aversion,which means that when people make decisions,they often prefer to choose the events with known probability,but don't like to choose the uncertain events.In recent years,more and more scholars have paid more and more attention to the study of ambiguity aversion.That review on the previous research,there are a lot of space to explore:first,to explore the relationship between the degree of vagueness and ambiguity aversion,researchers have obtained different results;second,there is little research in the comparative for self or others in the ambiguity decision making;third,individual differences(trait regulatory orientation)plays an important role in decision-making ambiguity is not clear.Based on the above problems,this study will be divided into three parts,and gradually explore the degree of ambiguity,the role of decision-making and the characteristics of the regulatory orientation of the impact of ambiguity aversion.The first part of the experiment is to investigate the ambiguity decision making in the field of money,the individual in the high,medium and low in the three kinds of ambiguity degree of the situation,it is shown that there is a change in the ambiguity aversion.The results show that the individual's ambiguous avoidance behavior will change with the change of the ambiguity degree.The second part includes two experiments,experiment two A into the decision-making role of this variable on the basis of experiment,explore people in different conditions,whether there are differences between themselves and others as ambiguity decision-making ambiguity avoidance behavior;experiment two B is the two A in the general others,the replacement for the specific others,to further explore the individual for self and for specific others when making ambiguity behavior whether there are differences.In the third part,on the basis of the previous two studies,this paper studies the effect of individual differences(the individual characteristics of a regulatory orientation).Corresponding to the second part,it consists of two separate experiments:experiment based on measuring the individual characteristics of a regulatory orientation,will be divided into individual promotion and prevention oriented,and also investigated in different ambiguity degree,for their own individual decision-making and avoidance behavior for others when making general others;experiment three is B general others in the other experiment triple-A replaced specific others,further investigate the promotion focus and prevention oriented individuals for their specific behavior and ambiguity decision,others with different degree of ambiguity.Based on the analysis of the experimental data and the analysis of the results,the following conclusions are drawn:(1)in the ambiguity decision making in the field of money,the individual will be affected by the degree of ambiguity.Specifically,in the context of high degree of ambiguity and moderate ambiguity,the individual shows more ambiguous avoidance.In the situation of low degree of ambiguity,the individual's decision-making preference is reversed,and the ambiguity seeking.(2)the decision role ambiguity on individual avoidance will have an impact,"others" who is very important,general others are less ambiguity than self;and if it is for others to circumvent the individual specific decision,there are no differences for self and others in ambiguity decision.(3)significant main effect on regulation of directional ambiguity aversion,prevention oriented experience than a promotion oriented individuals exhibit ambiguity aversion behavior.(4)when the other person is a general person,the interaction between the role of decision-making and the direction of regulation is significant.Promote the oriented individuals than others when making decisions in their decision-making showed avoidance behavior more prevention oriented individuals;prevention oriented individuals does not exist significant differences for self and others in ambiguity decision-making.
