# Abstract

Synthetic choice data from so-called decisions from experience is generated by applying different strategies of sample integration to a series of choice problems between two prospects.
The synthetic data is explored for characteristic choice patterns produced by these strategies under varying structures of the environment (prospect features) and aspects of the sampling- and decision behavior.
We start our argument by giving a probability theoretic account of prospects, sampling, and sample integration and derive assumptions about the choice patterns that result from different integration strategies, if applied.

# Introduction

## Prospects as Probability Spaces

Let a prospect be a *probability space* $(\Omega, \mathscr{F}, P)$ [@kolmogorovFoundationsTheoryProbability1950; @georgiiStochasticsIntroductionProbability2008, for an accessible introduction].

$\Omega$ is the *sample space* containing an at most countable set of possible outcomes 

$$\begin{equation}
\omega_i = \{\omega_1, ..., \omega_n\} \in \Omega
\end{equation}$$ 

$\mathscr{F}$ is a set of subsets of $\Omega$, i.e., the *event space*

$$\begin{equation}
A_i = \{A_1, ..., A_n\} \in \mathscr{F} = \mathscr{P}(\Omega)
\end{equation}$$

$\mathscr{P}(\Omega)$ denotes the power set of $\Omega$. 

$P$ is a probability mass function that maps $\mathscr{F}$ to the set of real numbers in $[0, 1]$ 

$$\begin{equation}
P: \mathscr{F} \mapsto [0,1]
\end{equation}$$

by assigning each $\omega_i \in \Omega$ a probability of $0 \leq p_i \leq 1$ with $P(\Omega) = 1$.

## Random Processes in Sequential Sampling 

In research on the decision theory, a standard paradigm is the choice between $n \geq 2$ monetary prospects (hereafter indexed with j), where $\omega_{ij} \in \Omega_j$ are monetary outcomes, gains and/or losses respectively.
$P_j$ is then the probability measure which assigns each $\omega_{ij}$ a probability with which they occur. 
In such a choice paradigm, agents are asked to evaluate the prospects and build a preference for, i.e., choose either one of them. 
It is common to make a rather crude distinction between two variants of this evaluation process [cf. @hertwigDescriptionExperienceGap2009]. 
For decisions from description (DfD), agents are provided a full symbolic description of the triples $(\Omega, \mathscr{F}, P)_j$.
For decision from experience [DfE; e.g., @hertwigDecisionsExperienceEffect2004], the probability triples are not described but must be explored by the means of *sampling*. 

To provide a formal definition of sampling in risky or uncertain choice, we make use of the mathematical concept of a random variable, a function that models the random processes decision theory is concerned with but which is rarely explicated. 
Thus, if for each

$$\begin{equation}
\omega_{i} \in \Omega: p(\omega_{i}) \neq 1
\end{equation}$$

we refer to the respective prospect as *"risky"*, where risky describes the fact that if agents would choose the prospect and any of the outcomes $\omega_{i}$ must occur, none of these outcomes will occur with certainty but according to the probability measure $P$. 
It is acceptable to speak of the occurrence of $\omega_{i}$ as the realization of a random variable iff the following conditions a. and b. are met: 

(a) The random variable $X$ is defined as the function 

$$\begin{equation}
X: (\Omega, \mathscr{F})  \mapsto (\Omega', \mathscr{F'})
\end{equation}$$

where the image $\Omega'$ is the set of possible values $X$ can take and $\mathscr{F'}$ is a set of subsets of $\Omega'$.
I.e., $X$ maps any event $A_i \in \mathscr{F}$ to a subset $A'_i \in \mathscr{F'}$ 

$$\begin{equation}
A'_i \in  \mathscr{F'} \Rightarrow X^{-1}A'_i \in \mathscr{F}
\end{equation}$$

[cf. @georgiiStochasticsIntroductionProbability2008].

(b) The image $X: \Omega \mapsto \Omega'$ must be such that $\omega_i \in \Omega = x_i \in \Omega'$. 

Given conditions a. and b., we denote any realization of a random variable defined on the triple $(\Omega, \mathscr{F}, P)$ as a *single sample* of the respective prospect and any systematic approach to generate a sequence of single samples from $n \geq 2$ prospects as a sampling strategy [see also @hillsInformationSearchDecisions2010]. 
Because for a sufficiently large number of single samples from a given prospect the relative frequencies of $\omega_{i}$ approximate their probabilities in $p_i \in P$, sampling in principle allows to explore a prospect's probability space. 

So far, we used the probability triple of a prospect and conditions a. and b. solely to provide a probability theoretic definition of a single sample.
However, since in the decision literature the (stochastic) occurrence of the raw outcomes in $\Omega$ is often treated as the event of interest, it should be justified to say that the stochastic model formulated under a. with the restriction b. is abundantly although implicitly assumed to underlie the evaluation processes of agents. 
We do not contend that this model is not adequate but rather empirically warranted and mathematically convenient, not least because of the measurable nature of the monetary outcomes in $\Omega$. 
However, in line with the literature that deviates from utility models and its derivatives [@heOntologyDecisionModels2020, for an ontology of decision models], we propose that the above restricted model is not the only suitable for describing the random processes agents are interested in, when building a preference between risky prospects, from sampling respectively.

We can construct an alternative stochastic sampling model (hereafter SSM) underlying DfE between risky prospects by starting from the assumption that agents do not make random choices but base their decisions on the information provided by the prospects, which is readily described by their probability triples. 
Thus, we may start rather abstractly by defining a decision variable $D$ 

$$\begin{equation}
D := f((\Omega, \mathscr{F}, P)_j)
\end{equation}$$

first without any further assumption on which information of the probability triple $f$ utilizes and how.
Although in principle many models for $f$ are proposed and tested in the decision literature, in DfE we can restrict the SSM to the case where decisions are based on sequences of single samples generated from the prospect triples.
Since we have defined the stochastic mechanism for generating such sequences, we write

$$\begin{equation}
D := f((X: (\Omega, \mathscr{F}) \mapsto (\Omega', \mathscr{F'}))_j)
\end{equation}$$

where $\Omega_j = \Omega'_j$. 

For n prospects, we write 

$$\begin{equation}
D := f(X_1, ..., X_j, ..., X_n)
\end{equation}$$

In summary, we have defined the decision variable $D$ as a function of the random variables associated with the prospects' probability spaces. 
As such, $f$ is allowed to operate on any quantitative measure related to these random variables.
We have already pointed out that decision theories will differ in the form of $f$ and the measures, or moments, it utilizes and we take the stance that these choices should be informed by the theory and data of the psychological and other sciences. 
For what do these choices mean? 
We think they reflect the assumptions about the kind of information agents process and the way they do, notwithstanding the question of whether they are capable of doing so.   
In the following section, we show how different processing assumptions for DfE, outlined by Hills and Hertwig [-@hillsInformationSearchDecisions2010], can be captured by the SSM.   

### Formalizing sampling and decision policies in the SSM

Hills and Hertwig [-@hillsInformationSearchDecisions2010] ... .

In the following, we consider the case of a choice between two prospects, their respective random variables we denote as $X$ and $Y$. 
By definition, we require the decision variable $D$ to be a measure of the evidence for one prospect over the other, i.e., $X$ over $Y$ or vice versa.
$f$ should thus map the comparison of $X$ and $Y$ to a measurable space.
In principle, 

we want $f$ to be a measurable function that maps the comparison of $X_1$ and $X_2$ to the measure space $\mathscr{D}$.
Because $X_1$ and $X_2$ are themselves measurable, we write their sample means as a fraction 

$$\begin{equation}
f: \frac{\overline{X_1}} {\overline{X_2}} = 
\frac{\frac{1}{N_1} \sum_{i=1}^{N_1} \omega_{i1}}{\frac{1}{N_2} \sum_{i=1}^{N_2} \omega_{i2}} \mapsto \mathscr{D}
\end{equation}$$

The decision variable $D$ is thus a function of the comparative measure $\frac{\overline{X_1}} {\overline{X_2}}$ of the random variables both defined on the probability spaces of their respective prospects. 
We assume that the elements of $\mathscr{D}$ are the natural numbers $\{0, 1\}$, indicating that the ordinal comparison of $\overline{X_1}$ and $\overline{X_2}$ either provides evidence for a given prospect $\{1\}$ or not $\{0\}$.  
Thus, $f$ itself can be defined as a random variable that maps the sample space $\Omega = \{\frac{\overline{X_1}} {\overline{X_2}}\}$ to the measurable space $\mathscr{D} = \{0, 1\}$.
However, since we are not interested in the measure $\frac{\overline{X_1}} {\overline{X_2}} = \mathbb{R}$ itself but in the ordinal comparison of $X_1$ and $X_2$, we introduce the event space $\mathscr{F} = \{\frac{\overline{X_1}}  {\overline{X_2}} > 0, \frac{\overline{X_1}}  {\overline{X_2}} \leq 0\}$ 

$$\begin{equation}
f: (\Omega, \mathscr{F})  \mapsto (\Omega', \mathscr{D})
\end{equation}$$


# Method

## Test set

Under each condition, i.e., strategy-parameter combinations, all gambles are played by 100 synthetic agents.
We test a set of gambles, in which one of the prospects contains a safe outcome and the other two risky outcomes (*safe-risky gambles*).
Therefore, 60 gambles from an initial set of 10,000 are sampled.
Both outcomes and probabilities are drawn from uniform distributions, ranging from 0 to 20 for outcomes and from .01 to .99 for probabilities of the lower risky outcomes $p_{low}$.
The probabilities of the higher risky outcomes are $1-p_{low}$, respectively.
To omit dominant prospects, safe outcomes fall between both risky outcomes.
The table below contains the test set of 60 gambles.
Sampling of gambles was stratified, randomly drawing an equal number of 20 gambles with no, an attractive, and an unattractive rare outcome.
Risky outcomes are considered *"rare"* if their probability is $p < .2$ and *"attractive"* (*"unattractive"*) if they are higher (lower) than the safe outcome.

```{r message=FALSE}
gambles <- read_csv("data/gambles/sr_subset.csv")
gambles %>% kable()
```

## Model Parameters

**Switching probability** $s$ is the probability with which agents draw the following single sample from the prospect they did not get their most recent single sample from.
$s$ is varied between .1 to 1 in increments of .1.

The **boundary type** is either the minimum value any prospect's sample statistic must reach (absolute) or the minimum value for the difference of these statistics (relative).
Sample statistics are sums over outcomes (comprehensive strategy) and sums over wins (piecewise strategy), respectively.

For comprehensive integration, the **boundary value** $a$ is varied between 15 to 75 in increments of 15.
For piecewise integration $a$ is varied between 1 to 5 in increments of 1.

```{r message=FALSE}
# read choice data 
cols <- list(.default = col_double(),
             strategy = col_factor(),
             boundary = col_factor(),
             gamble = col_factor(),
             rare = col_factor(),
             agent = col_factor(),
             choice = col_factor())
choices <- read_csv("data/choices/choices.csv", col_types = cols)
```

In sum, 2 (strategies) x 60 (gambles) x 100 (agents) x 100 (parameter combinations) = `r nrow(choices)` choices are simulated.

# Results

Because we are not interested in deviations from normative choice due to sampling artifacts (e.g., ceiling effects produced by low boundaries), we remove trials in which only one prospect was attended.
In addition, we use relative frequencies of sampled outcomes rather than 'a priori' probabilities to compare actual against normative choice behavior.

```{r}
# remove choices where prospects were not attended
choices <- choices %>%
  filter(!(is.na(a_ev_exp) | is.na(b_ev_exp)))
```

```{r eval = FALSE}
# remove choices where not all outcomes were sampled
choices <- choices %>% 
  filter(!(is.na(a_ev_exp) | is.na(b_ev_exp) | a_p1_exp == 0 | a_p2_exp == 0))
```

Removing the respective trials, we are left with `r nrow(choices)` choices.

## Sample Size

```{r message=FALSE}
samples <- choices %>% 
  group_by(strategy, s, boundary, a) %>% 
  summarise(n_med = median(n_sample))
samples_piecewise <- samples %>% filter(strategy == "piecewise")
samples_comprehensive <- samples %>% filter(strategy == "comprehensive")
```

The median sample sizes generated by different parameter combinations ranged from `r min(samples_piecewise$n_med)` to `r max(samples_piecewise$n_med)` for piecewise integration and `r min(samples_comprehensive$n_med)` to `r max(samples_comprehensive$n_med)` for comprehensive integration.

### Boundary type and boundary value (a)

As evidence is accumulated sequentially, relative boundaries and large boundary values naturally lead to larger sample sizes, irrespective of the integration strategy.

```{r message=FALSE}
group_med <- samples_piecewise %>%
  group_by(boundary, a) %>% 
  summarise(group_med = median(n_med)) # to get the median across all s values

samples_piecewise %>%
  ggplot(aes(a, n_med, color = a)) + 
  geom_jitter(alpha = .5, size = 2) +
  geom_point(data = group_med, aes(y = group_med), size = 3) +
  facet_wrap(~boundary) + 
  scale_color_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Piecewise Integration",
       x ="a", 
       y="Sample Size", 
       col="a") + 
  theme_minimal()
```

```{r message=FALSE}
group_med <- samples_comprehensive %>%
  group_by(boundary, a) %>% 
  summarise(group_med = median(n_med)) 

samples_comprehensive %>%
  ggplot(aes(a, n_med, color = a)) + 
  geom_jitter(alpha = .5, size = 2) +
  geom_point(data = group_med, aes(y = group_med), size = 3) +
  facet_wrap(~boundary) + 
  scale_color_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Comprehensive Integration",
       x ="a", 
       y="Sample Size", 
       col="a") + 
  theme_minimal()
```

### Switching probability (s)

For piecewise integration, there is an inverse relationship between switching probability and sample size.
I.e., the lower s, the less frequent prospects are compared and thus, boundaries are only approached with larger sample sizes.
This effect is particularly pronounced for low probabilities such that the increase in sample size accelerates as switching probability decreases.

```{r message=FALSE}
group_med <- samples_piecewise %>%
  group_by(boundary, s) %>% 
  summarise(group_med = median(n_med)) # to get the median across all a values

samples_piecewise %>%
  ggplot(aes(s, n_med, color = s)) + 
  geom_jitter(alpha = .5, size = 2) +
  geom_point(data = group_med, aes(y = group_med), size = 3) +
  facet_wrap(~boundary) + 
  scale_color_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Piecewise Integration",
       x ="s", 
       y="Sample Size", 
       col="s") + 
  theme_minimal()
```

For comprehensive integration, boundary types differ in the effects of switching probability.
For absolute boundaries, switching probability has no apparent effect on sample size as the distance of a given prospect to its absolute boundary is not changed by switching to (and sampling from) the other prospect.
For relative boundaries, however, samples sizes increase with switching probability.

```{r message=FALSE}
group_med <- samples_comprehensive %>%
  group_by(boundary, s) %>% 
  summarise(group_med = median(n_med)) # to get the median across all a values

samples_comprehensive %>%
  ggplot(aes(s, n_med, color = s)) + 
  geom_jitter(alpha = .5, size = 2) +
  geom_point(data = group_med, aes(y = group_med), size = 3) +
  facet_wrap(~boundary) + 
  scale_color_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Comprehensive Integration",
       x ="s",
       y = "Sample Size", 
       col="s") + 
  theme_minimal()
```

## Choice Behavior

Below, in extension to Hills and Hertwig [-@hillsInformationSearchDecisions2010], the interplay of integration strategies, gamble features, and model parameters in their effects on choice behavior in general and their contribution to underweighting of rare events in particular is investigated.
We apply two definitions of underweighting of rare events: Considering false response rates, we define underweighting such that the rarity of an attractive (unattractive) outcome leads to choose the safe (risky) prospect although the risky (safe) prospect has a higher expected value.

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates <- choices %>% 
  mutate(ev_ratio_exp = round(a_ev_exp/b_ev_exp, 2), 
         norm = case_when(ev_ratio_exp > 1 ~ "A", ev_ratio_exp < 1 ~ "B")) %>% 
  filter(!is.na(norm)) %>% # exclude trials with normative indifferent options
  group_by(strategy, s, boundary, a, rare, norm, choice) %>% # group correct and incorrect responses
  summarise(n = n()) %>% # absolute numbers 
  mutate(rate = round(n/sum(n), 2), # response rates 
         type = case_when(norm == "A" & choice == "B" ~ "false safe", norm == "B" & choice == "A" ~ "false risky")) %>% 
  filter(!is.na(type)) # remove correct responses
```

Considering the parameters of Prelec's [-@prelecProbabilityWeightingFunction1998] implementation of the weighting function [CPT; cf. @tverskyAdvancesProspectTheory1992], underweighting is reflected by decisions weights estimated to be smaller than the corresponding objective probabilities.

### False Response Rates

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates_piecewise <- fr_rates %>% filter(strategy == "piecewise")
fr_rates_comprehensive <- fr_rates %>% filter(strategy == "comprehensive")
```

The false response rates generated by different parameter combinations ranged from `r min(fr_rates_piecewise$rate)` to `r max(fr_rates_piecewise$rate)` for piecewise integration and from `r min(fr_rates_comprehensive$rate)` to `r max(fr_rates_comprehensive$rate)` for comprehensive integration.
However, false response rates vary considerably as a function of rare events, indicating that their presence and attractiveness are large determinants of false response rates.

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  group_by(strategy, boundary, rare) %>% 
  summarise(min = min(rate),
            max = max(rate)) %>% 
  kable()
```

The heatmaps below show the false response rates for all strategy-parameter combinations.
Consistent with our - somewhat rough - definition of underweighting, the rate of false risky responses is generally higher, if the unattractive outcome of the risky prospect is rare (top panel).
Conversely, if the attractive outcome of the risky prospect is rare, the rate of false safe responses is generally higher (bottom panel).
As indicated by the larger range of false response rates, the effects of rare events are considerably larger for piecewise integration.

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  filter(strategy == "piecewise", boundary == "absolute") %>% 
  ggplot(aes(a, s, fill = rate)) + 
  facet_grid(type ~ fct_relevel(rare, "attractive", "none", "unattractive"), switch = "y") +
  geom_tile(colour="white", size=0.25) + 
  scale_x_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(1, 5, 1)) +
  scale_y_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(.1, 1, .1)) +
  scale_fill_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Piecewise Integration | Absolute Boundary",
       x = "a", 
       y= "s", 
       fill = "% False Responses") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  filter(strategy == "piecewise", boundary == "relative") %>% 
  ggplot(aes(a, s, fill = rate)) + 
  facet_grid(type ~ fct_relevel(rare, "attractive", "none", "unattractive"), switch = "y") +
  geom_tile(colour="white", size=0.25) + 
  scale_x_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(1, 5, 1)) +
  scale_y_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(.1, 1, .1)) +
  scale_fill_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Piecewise Integration | Relative Boundary",
       x = "a", 
       y= "s", 
       fill = "% False Responses") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  filter(strategy == "comprehensive", boundary == "absolute") %>% 
  ggplot(aes(a, s, fill = rate)) + 
  facet_grid(type ~ fct_relevel(rare, "attractive", "none", "unattractive"), switch = "y") +
  geom_tile(colour="white", size=0.25) + 
  scale_x_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(15, 75, 15)) +
  scale_y_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(.1, 1, .1)) +
  scale_fill_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Comprehensive Integration | Absolute Boundary",
       x = "a", 
       y= "s", 
       fill = "% False Responses") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  filter(strategy == "comprehensive", boundary == "relative") %>% 
  ggplot(aes(a, s, fill = rate)) + 
  facet_grid(type ~ fct_relevel(rare, "attractive", "none", "unattractive"), switch = "y") +
  geom_tile(colour="white", size=0.25) + 
  scale_x_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(15, 75, 15)) +
  scale_y_continuous(expand=c(0,0), breaks = seq(.1, 1, .1)) +
  scale_fill_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Comprehensive Integration | Relative Boundary",
       x = "a", 
       y= "s", 
       fill = "% False Responses") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

#### Switching Probability (s) and Boundary Value (a)

As for both piecewise and comprehensive integration the differences between boundary types are rather minor and of magnitude than of qualitative pattern, the remaining analyses of false response rates are summarized across absolute and relative boundaries.

Below, the $s$ and $a$ parameter are considered as additional sources of variation in the false response pattern above and beyond the interplay of integration strategies and the rarity and attractiveness of outcomes.

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  filter(strategy == "piecewise") %>% 
  ggplot(aes(s, rate, color = a)) + 
  facet_grid(type ~ fct_relevel(rare, "attractive", "none", "unattractive"), switch = "y") +
  geom_jitter(size = 2) + 
  scale_x_continuous(breaks = seq(0, 1, .1)) +
  scale_y_continuous(breaks = seq(0, 1, .1)) +
  scale_color_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Piecewise Integration",
       x = "s", 
       y= "% False Responses", 
       color = "a") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

```{r message=FALSE}
fr_rates %>% 
  filter(strategy == "comprehensive") %>% 
  ggplot(aes(s, rate, color = a)) + 
  facet_grid(type ~ fct_relevel(rare, "attractive", "none", "unattractive"), switch = "y") +
  geom_jitter(size = 2) + 
  scale_x_continuous(breaks = seq(0, 1, .1)) +
  scale_y_continuous(breaks = seq(0, 1, .1)) +
  scale_color_viridis() + 
  labs(title = "Comprehensive Integration",
       x = "s", 
       y= "% False Responses", 
       color = "a") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

For piecewise integration, switching probability is naturally related to the size of the samples on which the round-wise comparisons of prospects are based on, with low values of $s$ indicating large samples and vice versa.
Accordingly, switching probability is positively related to false response rates.
I.e., the larger the switching probability, the smaller the round-wise sample size and the probability of experiencing a rare event within a given round.
Because round-wise comparisons are independent of each other and binomial distributions within a given round are skewed for small samples and outcome probabilities [@kolmogorovFoundationsTheoryProbability1950], increasing boundary values do not reverse but rather amplify this relation.

For comprehensive integration, switching probability is negatively related to false response rates, i.e., an increase in $s$ is associated with decreasing false response rates.
This relation, however, may be the result of an artificial interaction between the $s$ and $a$ parameter.
Precisely, in the current algorithmic implementation of sampling with a comprehensive integration mechanism, decreasing switching probabilities cause comparisons of prospects based on increasingly unequal sample sizes immediately after switching prospects.
Consequentially, reaching (low) boundaries is rather a function of switching probability and associated sample sizes than of actual evidence for a given prospect over the other.

### Cumulative Prospect Theory

In the following, we examine the possible relations between the parameters of the *choice-generating* sampling models and the *choice-describing* cumulative prospect theory.

For each distinct strategy-parameter combination, we ran 20 chains of 40,000 iterations each, after a warm-up period of 1000 samples.
To reduce potential autocorrelation during the sampling process, we only kept every 20th sample (thinning).

```{r}
# read CPT data
cols <- list(.default = col_double(),
             strategy = col_factor(),
             boundary = col_factor(),
             parameter = col_factor())
estimates <- read_csv("data/estimates/estimates_cpt_pooled.csv", col_types = cols)
```

#### Convergence

```{r}
gel_92 <- max(estimates$Rhat) # get largest scale reduction factor (Gelman & Rubin, 1992) 
```

The potential scale reduction factor $\hat{R}$ was $n \leq$ `r round(gel_92, 3)` for all estimates, indicating good convergence.

#### Piecewise Integration

```{r}
# generate subset of all strategy-parameter combinations (rows) and their parameters (columns)
curves_cpt <- estimates %>% 
  select(strategy, s, boundary, a, parameter, mean) %>% 
  pivot_wider(names_from = parameter, values_from = mean)
```

##### Weighting function w(p)

We start by plotting the weighting curves for all parameter combinations under piecewise integration.

```{r}

cpt_curves_piecewise <- curves_cpt %>% 
  filter(strategy == "piecewise") %>% 
  expand_grid(p = seq(0, 1, .1)) %>% # add vector of objective probabilities
  mutate(w = round(exp(-delta*(-log(p))^gamma), 2)) # compute decision weights (cf. Prelec, 1998)

# all strategy-parameter combinations 

cpt_curves_piecewise %>% 
  ggplot(aes(p, w)) + 
  geom_path(size = .5) +
  geom_abline(intercept = 0, slope = 1, color = "red", size = 1) +
  labs(title = "Piecewise Integration: Weighting functions",
       x = "p", 
       y= "w(p)") + 
  theme_minimal() 
```

```{r}
cpt_curves_piecewise %>% 
  ggplot(aes(p, w)) + 
  geom_path() +
  geom_abline(intercept = 0, slope = 1, color = "red", size = 1) +
  facet_wrap(~a) +
