Abstract: Indistinguishable probabilities are induced by the inability of decision makers to discriminate among probabilities which have similar values, as documented by experimental evidence. In the model of preference mechanism under risk that we examine, probabilities in each interval of a partition of [0,1] are assigned the same weight in the preference function. An axiomatic foundation, giving rise to a step-wise linear probability weighting transformation, is established. The model is consistent with classical violations of the expected utility theory. Our approach extends Rubinstein's similarity theory for multiple outcome lotteries and addresses the degeneracy of difference similarities. The model provides a simple formulation of just noticeable differences of probabilities. Preference in the presence of first-order stochastic dominance is discussed in the context of indistinguishable probabilities. Continuous probability weight transformation can be viewed as an approximation of our proposed weighting function. In this way, the model of indistinguishable probabilities develops a simple connection between two major theories of non-expected utility, namely prospect theory and similarity theory.
