概要 In this article, we present evidence of the benefits of expected utility that is sensitive to rare events. Specifically, we estimate the treatment effect of reports on rare catastrophic tsunamis by using a land price hedonic approach. To identify this effect, we employed a difference in differences (DD) design. Ordinal expected utility predicts no effect since the probability of catastrophic events is sufficiently small to be ignored. However, the estimation result reveals a significant effect. This implies that ordinal expected utility derived from objective risk distribution may be inappropriate for the economic prediction of rare catastrophic events.
