Estimates of agents' risk aversion differ between market studies and experimental studies. We demonstrate that the … background wealth as well as across risky outcomes: Risk aversion is similar whenever similar degrees of narrow framing is … assumed in either setting.

We assess the ability of different risk profiling measures to predict risk taking along a multi-stage decision process …. The latter involves decisions under ambiguity, decisions under risk, decisions after gaining experience and decisions … after receiving outcome information on previous decisions. We find that in all decisions risk taking can be predicted by …

This paper analyzes a dynamic stochastic equilibrium model of an asset market based on behavioral and evolutionary principles. The core of the model is a non-traditional game-theoretic framework combining elements of stochastic dynamic games and evolutionary game theory. Its key characteristic...

The paper models evolution in pecunia—in the realm of finance. Financial markets are explored as evolving biological systems. Investors pursuing diverse investment strategies compete for the market capital. Some `survive' and some `become extinct.' A central goal is to identify evolutionary...

We consider a stochastic model of a financial market with one-period assets and endogenous asset prices. The model was initially developed and analyzed in the context of Evolutionary Finance with the main focus on questions of "survival and extinction" of investment strategies (portfolio rules)....

Evolutionary Finance focuses on questions of "survival and extinction" of investment strategies (portfolio rules) in the market selection process. It analyzes stochastic dynamics of financial markets in which asset prices are determined endogenously by a short-run equilibrium between supply and...

We compare asset allocations that are derived for cumulative prospect theory (CPT) based on two different methods: maximizing CPT along the mean {variance efficient frontier and maximizing CPT without this restriction. We find that with normally distributed returns, the difference between these...
