我们解决一个共同的批评，针对模型的表达性投票，他们是特设的性质。为此，我们提出了一个表达行为的基础，是基于一个新的理论下的风险社会偏好。根据我们的建议，行为中的表达性考虑来自于决策者评估风险社会前景的特定方式，他们希望将自己的选择解释为道德。为了说明我们的框架的范围，我们用它来解决一些关键问题，在文学表达投票：为什么，表达的考虑，可能选民投票反对他们的自身利益在大型选举中，为什么这样的选举表现出道德偏见。具体地说，我们考虑了一个有两种选择的选举设置，并解释了为什么当选民人数很大时，选民可能希望投票给他们认为道德上上级的选择，即使这个选择碰巧严格地说，在一个包容的意义上，比其他更不受欢迎。(JEL D01、D03、D81、D72、A13）
We address a common criticism directed toward models of expressive voting that they are ad hoc in nature. To that end, we propose a foundation for expressive behavior that is based on a novel theory of social preferences under risk. Under our proposal, expressive considerations in behavior arise from the particular way in which risky social prospects are assessed by decision-makers who want to interpret their choices as moral. To illustrate the scope of our framework, we use it to address some key questions in the literature on expressive voting: why, for expressive considerations, might voters vote against their self-interest in large elections and why might such elections exhibit a moral bias. Specifically, we consider an electoral set-up with two alternatives and explain why, when the size of the electorate is large, voters may want to vote for the alternative they deem morally superior even if this alternative happens to be strictly less preferred, in an all-inclusive sense, than the other.
