This paper tackles the problem of characterizing preference relations between lotteries modified by mixing with probabilities centered at the extremes of their supports. Conditions for the representation of a preference by a non-extreme outcome expected utility are established under assumptions like stochastic dominance, Jensen continuity, von Neumann-Morgenstern independence and independence of probability shifts.
