Modeling attitudes towards uncertainty across attributes, sources and time.

Summary This document presents a summary of my research since my PhD Defense in March 2014. My work mainly consists in empirical investigations of preferences in decisions involving uncertainty and/or time. Most empirical studies on preferences under uncertainty focus on a restricted context where probabilities are known and outcomes are immediately-received monetary outcomes. My research extends the scope of decision contexts by exploring the impact of the type of consequence (the attribute), the source of uncertainty, and the timing of resolution of uncertainty and/or reception of outcomes on attitudes towards uncertainty. The document summarizes my main papers contributing to this research direction. It then presents a critical discussion of this work and proposes directions for future research.
