Selection and Mode Effects in Risk Preference Elicitation Experiments
van soest, arthur; von Gaudecker, H.M.; Wengstrom, E. - Tilburg University, Center for Economic Research - 2008
We combine data from a risk preference elicitation experiment conducted on a representative sample via the Internet … with laboratory data on student subjects for the same experiment in order to investigate effects of implementation mode and … of subject pool selection. We find that the frequency of errors in the lab experiment is drastically below that of the …
