Cuộc sống thống kê so với cuộc sống được xác định trong phân tích lợi ích-chi phí
Tóm tắt
Đánh giá các dự án có ảnh hưởng đến rủi ro tử vong thường giả định rằng những thay đổi rủi ro là nhỏ và tương tự ở tất cả các cá nhân. Trong thực tế, rủi ro khác nhau giữa các cá nhân và thông tin về sự không đồng nhất của rủi ro xác định mức độ mà những cuộc sống bị ảnh hưởng là "thống kê" hay "được xác định" và ảnh hưởng đến kết quả của phân tích lợi ích-chi phí (BCA). Các tác động của thông tin về sự không đồng nhất của rủi ro đối với BCA phụ thuộc vào, giữa nhiều yếu tố khác, liệu thông tin đó liên quan đến sự không đồng nhất của rủi ro cơ bản hay sự thay đổi trong rủi ro, và liệu việc định giá có sử dụng biến thể bồi thường hay biến thể tương đương. BCA không thiên vị một cách hệ thống cuộc sống được xác định hơn so với cuộc sống thống kê. Chúng tôi đưa ra một số yếu tố chính trị có thể giải thích sự thiên lệch công khai rõ ràng này.
