Abstract

A discussion of some experiments concerning subjective attitudes toward games, gambling, risk-taking, guessing, etc. Some of the experiments described are novel and interesting; but insufficient account is taken of previous experimental results, and the reports in general fail to meet current standards of clarity and completeness. The theory of games, obviously relevant to the topics discussed, is nowhere mentioned. --A. R. A.
