Talk:Pseudocertainty effect

Untitled
I will be editing this page and trying to elaborate and clarify on the concept in addition to distinguishing it from Certainty effect and Loss aversion. Bananabread7 (talk) 03:18, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

It's not clear why is it called pseudo-certainty. What is so apparently certain about it? The introductory paragraph should be rewritten to explain it in general terms (so that one could understand it without the help of the example). Paranoid 00:42, 26 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg
Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Similarity to Loss aversion
Same example, too. Just thought someone should point it out. --124.120.193.149 (talk) 09:28, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

page entirely wrong - pseudocertainty is something else
The example is awful because the expected values are extremely different, proportionally, comparing A vs. C and B vs. D98.225.76.162 (talk) 22:03, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

This page is simply entirely wrong. This is just not what the pseudocertainty effect is.

See e.g. http://econlog.econlib.org/archives/2009/07/government_heal.html.

Bad Example
The example is not very illustrative because the expected values are extremely different, proportionally, comparing C vs. E and D vs. F. The difference in utility between $7.50 and %9 is not the same as the different in utility between $30 and $36. 98.225.76.162 (talk) 22:03, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Same article
This is a re-written, but otherwise identical, article as Certainty effect. --Ben Culture (talk) 17:14, 11 May 2015 (UTC)


 * The other article is understandable, while this one has issues with both grammar and clarity. Perhaps this one should be removed and simply redirect to the other one? -AlanUS (talk) 21:22, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
