This article presents a criticism of the theory of expected utility as a descriptive model of decision making under risk, and presents the prospective theory as an alternative model. The choices between risky alternatives show several general effects that are not consistent with the principal of the theory of utility. The certainty effect, for instance, contributes to the aversion to risk when it is about certain gain and to the attraction to risk when the choices implicate certain loss. The isolation effect contributes to non-consistent preferences when the same choice is presented in different ways. An alternative theory of choice is developed, where measurement values are given to gain and loss instead of to the final results and where p...
