Interpretation<br />

◮ The function u, referred to as a utility function, represents the agent’s<br />

attitude towards wealth.<br />

◮ The set Q represents the set <strong>of</strong> priors held by agents.<br />

◮ Under multiple priors preferences, the degree <strong>of</strong> ambiguity is reflected by<br />

the multiplicity <strong>of</strong> the priors.<br />

◮ Under general variational preferences, the degree <strong>of</strong> ambiguity is reflected<br />

by the multiplicity <strong>of</strong> the priors <strong>and</strong> the esteemed plausibility <strong>of</strong> the prior<br />

as reflected in the ambiguity index (or penalty function).<br />
