We study the influence of risk and time preferences on trust and trustworthiness by conducting a field experiment in Vietnamese villages and by estimating the parameters of the Cumulative Prospect Theory and of quasi-hyperbolic time preferences. We find that while probability sensitivity or risk...

A large fraction of households have very little savings buffer and are there-fore vulnerable to financial shocks. We examine whether a social norm nudgecan stimulate such households to save more by running a small-scale survey ex-periment and a large-scale field experiment at a retail bank in...

We study risk attitudes, ambiguity attitudes, and time preferences of 661 children and adolescents, aged ten to eighteen years, in an incentivized experiment and relate experimental choices to field behavior. Experimental measures of impatience are found to be significant predictors of...
