Numbered Figures forProspect Theory
for Risk and Ambiguity
by Peter P. Wakker (2010);
provided on internet July 2013 (with permission of CUP)
The figures were made using 2009 software, mainly the drawing
facilities of MS-Word. They were updated March 2017 to a new
version of MS Word. If no elucidation is added to a figure,
then it was made using only facilities of MS Word. Sometimes
there are curves “drawn by hand” which means using the curve-
mouse-drawing facilities of MS-Word.
Sometimes I used graphs of functions. Those graphs I made
using the program Scientific Workplace. I would then turn
them into wmf windows metafiles. Those I introduced as
picture in the MS Word drawing program. (It works better to
first introduce pictures in Powerpoint, and then transfer them
from powerpoint to MS Word, so this is how I did it.) I would
then only take the curve from the wmf file and nothing else,
so I would drop all letters, axes, and so on from the wmf
file. Those I would all make using MS Word.
Apart from 3 exceptions (added where relevant), I never kept
the Sc. Workplace TeX input file, if they are easy to redo.

ELUCIDATION: This Figure was made using only MS Word. I drew
the curves by hand. The right curve should be obtained from
the left one by rotating left and flipping horizontally.
Under Eq. 5.1.2, the curve can be interpreted as the probability weighting function w, to be normalized at the extreme amounts(w = 0 at $0 and w = 1 at $100).
Under expected utility, the curve can be interpreted as the utility function, normalized at the extreme amounts.

The area shaded by is the value of the prospect. Distances of endpoints of layers (“all the way”) down to the x-axis are transformed, similar to Figure 5.2.3. The endpoint of the last layer now remains at a distance of 1 from the x-axis, reflecting normalization of the bounded probability scale.

For points on the y-axis (“endpoints of layers”), their distance down to the x-axis are transformed using w. For points on the x-axis (“endpoints of columns”), their distances leftwards to the y-axis are transformed using U.
