Decision making under risk in a large-payoff game show Thierry Post* Guido Baltussen Martijn Van den Assem Abstract The popular television game show —Deal or No Deal“ offers a unique opportunity for analyzing decision making under risk: it involves very large and wide-ranging stakes, simple stop-go decisions that require minimal skill, knowledge or strategy and near- certainty about the probability distribution. Based on a panel data set of the choices of contestants in all game rounds of 53 episodes from Australia and the Netherlands, we find an average Arrow-Pratt coefficient of relative risk aversion (RRA) between roughly 1 and 2 for initial wealth levels between ⁄0 and ⁄50,000 and assuming full rationality. Risk aversion is lower if we allow for myopic or hyperopic framing.

    A Study of the Factors Those Influence the Choice of Reality TV Show Based on the Psychological Desires Fulfilled

    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATION, LEADERSHIP, SOCIETY, AND SUSTAINABILITY eISSN: XXXX-XXXX Vol I, Issue 1, Jan 2021 DOI : A Study of The Factors Those Influence the Choice of Reality TV Show Based on The Psychological Desires Fulfilled Mr. Hemant Atre, Research Scholar, & Dr. Deepak Tilak, Vice Chancellor, Tilak Maharashtra Vidyapeeth, Pune. Corresponding Author Email id: [email protected] Abstract Lokmanya Bal Gangadhar Tilak (23 July 1856- 1 August 1920) was the fearless icon of the independence movement. He was the harbinger of India’s mass upsurge. He strongly believed that the failure of the 1857 Independence movement was because it could not garner adequate public support. The then politics in India was driven by few English-educated people based on European ideals, with no roots with the masses. Lokmanya brought awareness about the oppression by the Britishers to the masses. He was often called the “Awakener of India” and “Father of Indian Unrest” by the Britishers. But his path followed through being the “Father of Indian Consciousness.” This awakening was carried out by making use of all existing methods of mass communications including public celebrations and discourses, public speeches, Newspapers, and educational institutions etc. Lokmanya was a great charismatic leader who touched the “Nerve of the masses” and channelized their opinions towards Independence. In modern times, Television, which was invented in 1926 has an unmatched popularity towards being a mass broadcaster. Initially, looked at as a means of transferring information and education to the masses, it soon became an entertainment provider due to its wide reach. As the daily soaps became repetitive, monotonous and common, people lost the interest in watching the same serials with similar story lines and content.
