Support Theory: A Nonextensional Representation of Subjective Probability.
Tversky, Amos; Koehler, Derek J.
Psychological Review, v101 n4 p547-67 Oct 1994
A new theory of subjective probability is presented. According to this theory, different descriptions of the same event can give rise to different judgments. Experimental evidence supporting this theory is summarized, demonstrating that the theory provides a unified treatment of a wide range of empirical findings. (SLD)
