  • Dealing with Metaphysical Evil: the Banker As Evil Genius in the British Game Show Deal Or No Deal
    Dealing with Metaphysical Evil: The Banker as Evil Genius in the British Game Show Deal or No Deal Melissa Dearey It would appear that evil is becoming more, not less, conspicuous in contemporary social discourses as a conceptual resource for explaining the derivation of social harms emanating from human (in)action and exculpating the failures of institutional or regulatory agencies to prevent them. Metaphysical evil is increasingly cited in a range of popular and official explanations of social harms resulting from moral failures at the individual and collective level. By ‘metaphysical evil’ I mean evil of a transcendent, demonic nature reflecting the seductive, cruel and wicked aspects of pure malice directed at ‘innocent’, unsuspecting or hapless humans that has been traditionally personified in a monstrous or Satanic figure of myth and/or the presence of a seducer implied by the Gnostic traditions and the theodicy, as well as within rationalist Cartesian epistemology. This type of evil is to be distinguished from the physical evil unleashed by, for instance, disease or natural disasters, or the humanist designation of moral evil delimited to the observation of socio-ethical-legal codes of behaviour as represented in the deontological ethics of Kant, specifically his concept of ‘radical evil’ ([1793] 1960). Kant's reconceptualisation of evil as ‘radical’, that is as ‘rooted’ in the human character and the result of the failure of all human beings to live up to their duties according to the norms of moral law, was intended among other things to do away with what he considered the failure of theodicy in general and its notional acceptance of evil as a metaphysical reality in particular.

  • The Influence of Personal Characteristics and Reference Dependence in Risky Decision-Making for a High-Stakes Game Show
    Name: Robin Rietveldt Student Number: 329975 Date: 27/06/2012 The influence of personal characteristics and reference dependence in risky decision-making for a high-stakes game show By Robin Rietveldt Erasmus University, Erasmus School of Economics _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract This paper takes a look at the decision-making of contestants in the game show “De Postcode Loterij Miljoenenjacht”, the format that is also known as “Deal or No Deal” in countries outside The Netherlands. I have sampled 41 episodes looking for differences in decision-making caused by gender and age. No significant effects were found but this might be related to the fact that the semi final has characteristics of a “selection round”. In addition I looked for signs of reference dependence in the data. The data showed “Winners” and “Losers” were less likely to deal compared to their “Neutral” counterparts. This proves that the course of the game is relevant to what decision a contestant will make at the end of the round. My theory for “Winners” not only includes effects of reference dependence but also the overvaluation of small probabilities. Keywords Decision making under risk; game show; risk preferences; risk aversion; prospect theory; deal or no deal _____________________________________________________________________ Introduction If I look back on the three years of economics education and have to name one core concept of the program that was of most importance it would be decision-making. Whether it was deciding what investment to pursue, what product to buy in the market or how to decide in games according to game theory. But knowing how to optimally decide, or decide rationally, isn’t everything.

  • Is Deal Or No Deal Cheating Its Contestants?
    OC TM Is Deal or No Deal Cheating Its Contestants? Daniel R. Shifflet, Bowling Green State University As fans of fair contests, we are lead to believe that game shows proceed with mathematical consistency. However, a slight anomaly in this basic assumption can be found while watching the game play of Deal or No Deal. During certain situations it seems like the show is cheating its contestants. Could any mathematician let this question go without further analysis? Of course not! So began an investigation into our hypothesis. Using simple statistical notions like expected value and linear regression, we show how to isolate this math- ematical irregularity and provide some evidence of its existence. What does this mean? Is foul play afoot? Read on to fi nd out. Introduction to open it.

  • Time Varying Risk Aversion∗
    June 2017 Time Varying Risk Aversion∗ Luigi Guiso EIEF & CEPR Paola Sapienza Northwestern University, NBER, & CEPR Luigi Zingales University of Chicago, NBER, & CEPR Abstract Exploiting portfolio data and repeated surveys of an Italian bank’s clients we test whether investors’ risk aversion increases following the 2008 crisis. We find that, after the crisis, both qualitative and quantitative measures of risk aversion increase substantially and that affected individuals divest more from stock. We investigate four explanations: changes in wealth, expected income, perceived probabilities, and emotion-based changes of the utility function. Our data are inconsistent with the first two channels, while they suggest that fear is a potential mechanism underlying financial decisions, whether by increasing the curvature of the utility function or the salience of negative outcomes. ∗ We thank Nick Barberis, John Campbell, John Cochrane, James Dow, Stefan Nagel, Andrei Shleifer, Ivo Welch, Jeffrey Wurgler and an anonymous referee for very helpful comments.

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.

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 stakes, simple take-or-leave decisions that require minimal skill 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 Pratt-Arrow relative risk aversion (RRA) between roughly 1 and 2 for initial wealth levels between ⁄0 and ⁄50,000. The RRA differs substantially across the contestants and some even exhibit risk seeking behavior. The cross-sectional differences in RRA can be explained in large part by the previous outcomes experienced by the contestants during the game.

It appears that this advice does not have a significant impact on the decisions of contestants. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Keywords: Advice; Decision making; Television show; Natural experiment JEL classification: C93; D81 1. Introduction Taking and giving advice plays an important role in the life of many people. We seek advice from family, friends or colleagues in different situations. While we particularly value advice given by experts or people, who have experience with making similar choices, we are often guided by “naïve” advisors, who hardly possess more expertise or knowledge than we do (Schotter, 2003). Several studies analyze the impact of advice on individual decision making. Evidence in this field comes primarily from laboratory experiments. Particularly, Schotter (2003) surveys several laboratory studies on advice when nonoverlapping “generations” of subjects play ultimatum and coordination games. In these studies (e.g. Schotter and Sopher, 2004, 2007) subjects often rely on the advice of naïve ☆ I am grateful to Glenn Harrison, Anita Gantner and an anonymous referee for their insightful comments and suggestions.

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 stakes, simple take-or-leave decisions that require minimal skill 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 Pratt-Arrow relative risk aversion (RRA) between roughly 1 and 2 for initial wealth levels between ⁄0 and ⁄50,000.

  • Global Formats and Canadian Television: the Case of Deal Or No Deal
    Global Formats and Canadian Television: The Case of Deal or No Deal Ira Wagman Carleton University ABSTRACT This article discusses the circulation of format television, with a particular em - phasis on the Canadian version of the program Deal or No Deal . It argues for the importance of circulation as a concept for understanding the ways in which format television programs— and other forms of popular culture—travel in different cultural contexts. Through the case of Deal we can see how delays, interruptions, re-purposing, and reframing of artifacts are part of the daily rhythms that characterize the circulation of cultural works on a global scale and serve as a possible analytical opening for appreciating the flows of culture that have histori - cally existed between the United States and Canada. KEYWORDS Television; Canada; Circulation; Globalization RÉSUMÉ Cet article examine la circulation des formats télévisés, mettant un accent particulier sur la version canadienne de l’émission Deal or No Deal . Il affirme l’importance de la circulation pour comprendre comment les formats télévisés—et d’autres formes de culture populaire—diffèrent selon le milieu culturel. Avec Deal or No Deal , on peut voir comment les retards, interruptions, adaptations et recadrages font partie intégrante des rythmes quotidiens qui caractérisent la circulation des œuvres culturelles à l’échelle mondiale et offrent une ouverture possible pour l’analyse de ces flux culturels qui ont longtemps existé entre les États-Unis et le Canada. MOTS CLÉS Télévision; Canada; Circulation; Mondialisation he television show Deal or No Deal is a modern-day take on the shell game.
