Popis: Second-order stochastic dominance is used to determine preferences among various investments for any risk-averse decision maker. On the other hand, when faced with choosing between different insurance policies or disaster plans, a risk-averse decision maker should use a type of stochastic dominance called variability ordering. In this situation, second-order stochastic dominance has been used in previous research and is incorrect.
