A theoretical and experimental appraisal of five risk elicitation methods
Crosetto, Paolo; Filippin, Antonio - 2013
We perform a comparative analysis of five incentivized tasks used to elicit risk preferences. Theoretically, we compare the elicitation methods in terms of completeness of the range of the estimates as well as their precision, the likelihood of triggering loss aversion, and problems arising when...

Social preferences under risk: Ex-post fairness vs. efficiency
Gaudeul, Alexia - 2015
Social lotteries are lotteries that are played along with someone else. The experimental literature indicates that risk attitudes depend on how one's situation in the safe alternative compares to that of a peer. Evaluation of the risky alternative also depends on whether the lottery gives equal...

Imperfect recall and time inconsistencies: An experimental test of the absentminded driver 'paradox'
Levati, Maria Vittoria; Uhl, Matthias; Zultan, Ro'i - 2010
Absentmindedness is a special case of imperfect recall which according to Piccione and Rubinstein (1997a) leads to time inconsistencies. Aumann, Hart and Perry (1997a) question their argument and show how dynamic inconsistencies can be resolved. The present paper explores this issue from a...
