Scholar-generated biography
Marciano Siniscalchi is a Professor of Economics at Northwestern University, specializing in Game Theory and Decision Theory. His research explores foundational issues in epistemic game theory, including hierarchies of conditional beliefs, interactive epistemology, and rationalization under incomplete information. He investigates ambiguity aversion, dynamic choice under uncertainty, and the role of subjective beliefs in decision-making. His work also addresses Bayesian updating for maxmin expected utility preferences and the behavioral characterization of plausible priors. Siniscalchi's contributions span both theoretical and applied aspects of decision theory, with a focus on understanding how agents reason under uncertainty and incomplete information in strategic settings.
