Dynamic Concern for Misspecification
对模型误设的动态担忧
I consider an agent who posits a set of probabilistic models for the payoff‐relevant outcomes. The agent has a prior over this set but fears the actual model is omitted and hedges against this possibility. The concern for misspecification is endogenous: If a model explains the previous observations well, the concern attenuates. I show that different static preferences under uncertainty (subjective expected utility, maxmin, robust control) arise in the long run, depending on…
