Information acquisition processes and their continuity: Transforming uncertainty into risk Debora Di Caprio Madjid Tavana Santos Arteaga, Francisco Javier We propose a formal approach to the problem of transforming uncertainty into risk via information revelation processes. Abstractions and formalizations regarding information acquisition processes are common in different areas of information sciences. We investigate the relationships between the way information is acquired and the continuity properties of revelation processes. A class of revelation processes whose continuity is characterized by how information is transmitted is introduced. This allows us to provide normative results regarding the continuity of the information acquisition processes of decision makers (DMs) and their ability to formulate probabilistic predictions within a given confidence range. 2025-01-13T14:53:44Z 2025-01-13T14:53:44Z 2025-01-13T14:53:44Z 2014-08-01 journal article https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/114020 0020-0255 10.1016/j.ins.2014.02.144 eng Di Caprio, D., Santos-Arteaga, F.
