Appendix B. Prospect Theory and formal Utility functions

The motivation for taking the second-stage gamble is quantified by the utility difference between taking the second-stage gamble and stopping the gamble after the first-stage gamble, Eqs. (14), (15), (13). In the Prospect Theory approach by Tversky and Shafir (1992) the utility function is given the formal expression of a power law. The utility expression xa, with a < 1, expresses the diminished utility of monetary value due to risk aversion with respect to gains. Similarly for the utility of losses x b, with b < 1, expressing risk seeking, and with b < a, implementing the principle that losses loom larger than gains. Using this power law utility expression, and anchoring the outcome of the first-stage gamble in Unknown condition to zero, Tversky and Shaffir provided a theoretical argument for how a participant’s choices would produce a violation of the STP.

Besides the observation of both an inflative and deflative violation of the LTP, our study also shows systematic decreasing tendencies to take the second-stage gamble when the payoff increases. In this section we show that this observed decreasing tendency is not only at odds with the power law form of the utility function (Tversky & Shafir, 1992), but also with the logarithmic utility form and the exponential utility form.

Power law Utility.

A gain x is evaluated with utility xa and a loss x at xb (x > 0, 0 b a 1). The motivation to take the second-stage gamble is expressed by the difference of Expected Utility and utility of stopping the gamble, Eqs. (14), (15), (13):

EU (X|W )

Uw (X ) = .5(2x)a + .5(x/2)a xa,

(B1)

EU (X|L)

Ul (X ) = .5 (x/2)a .5xb + (x/2)b,

(B2)

EU (X|U)

0 = .5xa .5(x/2)b 0.

(B3)

One can easily show that this approach predicts increasing probability to take the second-stage gamble when the payoff x increases (loss x/2 decreases). Moreover this is the case for both Known previous outcome conditions W and L. The derivatives of the utility differences in the W and L condition are

Both expressions are non negative, which indicates increasing motivation to take the second-stage gamble with increasing payoff X. According to the Prospect Theoretic approach (Tversky & Shafir, 1992) the probability to take the second-stage gamble should thus increase with payoff, for the W and L condition.

For the U condition the derivative of the utility motivation is

in this case we find the probability to take the gamble will decrease for payoffs x larger than the constant b a 2ba , which thus allows in

principle for a decreasing gamble probability.

b

 

Our observations of the gamble probabilities, Figs. 4 and 3, show a persistent trend of diminished playing for higher payoffs.16

Logarithmic utility.

A gain x is evaluated at logarithmic utility U (X ) = log(x + b), with b

> 0. The motivation to take the second-stage gamble in the

Win condition is evaluated by the difference of Expected Utility and utility of stopping the gamble, Eq. (14),

EU (X|W ) Uw (X ) = .5log(2x + b) + .5log(x/2 + b)

log(x + b).

(B8)

The first derivative towards payoff X is

x + b),

 

b

(B9)

(EU (X|W ) Uw (X )) = 4(2x + b)(x/2 + b)(x + b) (

which can produce in principle decreasing probabilities with increasing payoff for larger X.

For a loss x < 0 the logarithmic utility is evaluated at U (x) = log( x + c), with c > 0. For continuity of the utility function over the domains of loss and gain we can set b = c. The motivation to take the second-stage gamble in the Lose condition is evaluated by the difference of Expected Utility and utility of stopping the gamble, Eq. (14),

(EU (X|L) Ul (X )) = .5(log(|x|/2 + b)) + .5 (log(|x| + b)) (log(|x|/2 + b)),

= 1.5log(|x|/2 + b) .5log(|x| + b).

The first derivative towards payoff X is

(EU (X|L) Ul (X )) =

1.5

(B10)

(B11)

which is negative and thus shows the utility increases with x , and larger losses should lead to a higher probability to gamble. Thus the logarithmic utility expression contradicts the observed gamble probabilities as well, Fig. 4.

Exponential utility.

A gain x is evaluated at exponential utility U (X ) = (1 e ax)/a, with a > 0. The motivation to take the second-stage gamble in the Win condition is evaluated by the difference of Expected Utility and utility of stopping the gamble, Eq. (14),

EU (X|W )

Uw (X )

=

.5 e a2x .5e ax/2 + e ax .

(B12)

 

 

a

The first derivative towards payoff X is

 

(EU (X|W )

Uw (X ))

= e a2x + .25 e ax/2 e ax = e ax (e ax + .25 eax/2 1).

(B13)

The latter expression is a third-degree polynomial in eax/2. It has three real-valued roots, one negative and two positive. The derivative has therefore two zero-points. One can easily see from the sign of the bracketed expression, that the first derivative will be positive for payoffs x > 2/a.

Again we conclude larger payoffs will lead to a higher probability to gamble. The exponential utility expression thus also contradicts the observed gamble probabilities, Fig. 4.

16 Our observations show that the probability to take the second-stage gamble on Lose is larger than on Win, Fig. 4. This feature is correctly predicted by Prospect Theory of Kahneman and Tversky (1979), and by Reyna and Brainerd (1991) in their fuzzy-trace theory. One can easily see that by Prospect Theory, Eqs. (B1) and (B2), for a given payoff x the gamble under L has more utility than under W:

(EU (X|W ) Uw (X )) (EU (X|L) Ul (X )) = xa (2a 1 1) + xb (.5 (.5)b) < 0,

(B7)

since 0 b a 1 both summands are negative. Notice that the gamble probabilities in the original experiment of Tversky and Shafir (1992) do not adhere to this ordering, Table 1.

Abstract.  Quantum cognition is a new field in psychology, which is characterized by the application of quantum probability theory to human judgment and decision making behavior. This article provides an introduction that presents several examples to illustrate in a simple and concrete manner how to apply these principles to interesting psychological phenomena. Following each simple example, we present the general mathematical derivations and new predictions related to these applications.

Keywords: conjunction fallacy, interference effects, order effects, quantum probability.

Most psychological scientists are trained in what is known as Kolmogorov (1933/1950) probability theory. This is also called “classical” probability theory, because it was originally developed with applications to classical physics in mind. However, in the 20th century, this theory was applied more broadly outside of physics to economics, psychology, and social sciences in general. This is the basic probability theory taught in all the psychology statistics classes, and it forms the foundation for almost all the the statistical work presented in psychological research. It is also the basic foundation for many psychometric test theories and cognitive psychology theories.

It may come as a surprise to many psychologists that there are other probability theories besides this classical theory! In fact, many other “generalized” probability theories have been developed (see, e.g., Narens, 2015). It is interesting to ask the following question: If there is more than one probability theory, which one is most suitable for psychology? This is not such a strange question. Consider another example from geometry. For many centuries, scholars thought that there was only one geometry – Euclidean. However, later developments by Lobachevsky, Gauss, Minkowsky, and others introduced new geometries. Initially scholars thought that these new geometries were exotic, but later they became essential for physics (e.g., in general relativity theory). The same may be true of “generalized” probability theories for social sciences.

This paper grew out of an invited talk given at the VII Advanced International Seminar – Mathematical Models of Decision Making Processes: State of the Art and Challenges held at the School of Psychology, Universidad Complutense de Madrid (Spain) in October 2018 (http:// eventos.ucm.es/go/DecisionMakingModels).

Von Neumann (1932/1955) probability theory is considered to be one of the “generalized” probability theories (Gudder, 1988). Von Neumann theory is called quantum probability, because it was developed for applications to the newer quantum mechanics that replaced classical mechanics and revolutionized physics. Quantum probability is considered to be a generalization of classical probability, because the von Neumann axioms are less restrictive than the Kolmogorov axioms. Quantum probability has recently been applied to fields outside of physics in including psychology (Busemeyer & Bruza, 2012) and economics (Haven & Khrennikov, 2013) and social sciences more generally (Wendt, 2015).

Kolmogorov theory is based on the idea that events (e.g., predicting whether or not your opponent will defect in a prisoners’ dilemma game) are represented as subsets of a larger set called the sample space. This idea implies a logic of subsets, which is a Boolean logic that requires strict properties such as closure (if A, B are events in the same sample space, then AB is an event), commutativity, (AB)= (BA), and distributivity, A∩ (B B) = (BA) (BA).

Quantum theory is based on the idea that events (e.g., deciding whether or not you intend to defect in a prisoners’ dilemma game) are represented as subspaces of a vector space called the Hilbert space. This idea implies a logic of subspaces, which is a “partial” Boolean logic: it relaxes the assumptions of closure, commutativity, and distributivity.

But of all the possible generalized probability theories, why pick quantum probability? The reason is that one of the main principles from quantum theory, Bohr’s famous principle of complementarity, is also a principle

shared by psychology (Wang & Busemeyer, 2015). It is an interesting twist of history that Bohr, who introduced the concept of complementarity to quantum theory, actually became aware of this idea by learning about similar issues in psychology. Edgar Rubin, a Danish psychologist and friend of Bohr, acquainted Bohr with the writings by William James (1890) about complementarity. Complementarity refers to the condition in which different measurements can only be applied one at a time, but they are all necessary for a comprehensive picture of the phenomena under investigation (Plotnitsky, 2012). An important consequence of the sequential nature of complementary measurements is that the specific sequence or order of the measurements may matter. The characteristics of the first measurement can change the context used to evaluate a subsequent measurement.

For example, consider two different measurement orders in a prisoners’ dilemma game. In one order, the player is first asked to predict what her opponent will do (before his move is revealed to her), and then decide what action she will take. In the opposite order, the player is first asked to decide what action she will take, and then predict what her opponent will do (before her play is revealed to him). The intuition is that the player can’t simultaneously think about what she will do and what her opponent will do. She may find it difficult to do these “measurements” at the same time, and instead she has to do this sequentially. She can first predict what her opponent will do and then decide what she will do, or she can decide what she will do and then predict what her opponent will do. But the order of measurement matters. In fact, it has been empirically found that the relative frequencies of pairs of answers to these questions change depending on order (Tesar, 2019).

Order effects demonstrate a way that noncommutativity enters into quantum probability theory. If the measurement of two events (e.g., what actions you and your opponent will take in a prisoners’ dilemma game) are non-commutative, then they are called incompatible. Not all measurements are incompatible (e.g. asking how old you are and where you live produce the same answers regardless of order), and in this case they are called compatible. One way to think about the difference between classical and quantum theories is that quantum theory would be equivalent to classical theory if all measurements were compatible. The inclusion of incompatible measurements is what makes quantum theory different.

If two events, A, B in the same Hilbert space are noncommutative, then there is no subspace equal to their intersection, which implies that there is no conjunction (AB), and so closure no longer holds. Also if A, B are non-commutative, then distributivity can fail because A does not necessarily equal (B and then A) or ( B and then A).

quantum machine learning

For these reasons, it turns out that quantum probability theory is not only useful in physics, but it also useful for psychology (Pothos & Busemeyer, 2013; Blutner & beim Graben, 2016; Bruza et al., 2015). Note that we are not necessarily proposing that the brain is some kind of quantum computer (see, e.g., Hameroff, 2013 for an example of this interpretation), and instead, we are only using the mathematical principles of quantum theory to account for human behavior. More importantly, as we illustrate below, quantum probability theory provides some simple accounts of puzzling findings from psychology.

Example applications of quantum probability to psychology

Below we present three applications of quantum theory to several different interesting phenomena in psychology. For each example application, we present a simple 2-dimensional “toy” model to illustrate the essential ideas. After presenting each toy model, we also present the more general application of the theory. All of the articles to which we refer in this presentation are based on higher dimensional models. A very general formulation for building quantum models of cognition is presented in Busemeyer & Wang (2018).1

Question order effects

We start out with an example based on an actual national survey of 1005 participants concerning racial hostility conducted in the United States in 1996 and reported in Moore (2002). Participants were asked the following two questions in different orders: The WB question asked whether or not the participant thought that many white people dislike black people (yes or no), and the BW question asked whether or not the participant thought that many black people dislike white people (yes, no). The answers changed depending on the order producing a large and significant order effect. We start by illustrating how a quantum model produces order effects such as this. Although the reported results are based on aggregation, in the following, we will describe the model for a single participant. We begin with a ’toy’ example.

We assume that the two questions, WB, BW are incompatible. The intuition is that a person needs to put himself in the perspective of white person to answer the WB question, and he needs to put himself into the perspective of a black person to answer the BW question, and the person can’t view both perspectives at the same time. To make the model for this situation as simple as possible, we use a 2-dimensional vector space and one dimensional subspaces (rays) (see Figure 1).
