Ever Since Allais (with Aluma Dembo, Shachar Kariv, and John K.-H. Quah), 2025. ​Reports an experiment that nonparametrically tests the entire set of axioms on which expected utility theory (EUT) is based, and finds that within-subjects departures from independence are small relative to departures from ordering (completeness and transitivity) and/or monotonicity with respect to first-order stochastic dominance (FOSD). Working Paper: DKPQ 2025. Appendix. [Accepted, Journal of Political Economy]
Money Pumps and Bounded Rationality (with Joshua Lanier and John K.-H. Quah), 2024. Explores money pumps in relation to (departures from) economic rationality. Working Paper: arXiv:2404.04843.
