Measuring Time and Risk Preferences : Reliability, Stability, Domain Specificity
Woelbert, Eva - 2013
To accurately predict behavior economists need reliable measures of individual time preferences and attitudes toward risk and typically need to assume stability of these characteristics over time and across decision domains. We test the reliability of two choice tasks for eliciting discount...

The Endogenous Nature of the Measurement of Social Preferences
Smith, John - 2012
We present evidence against the standard assumptions that social preferences are stable and can be measured in a reliable, nonintrusive manner. We find evidence that measures of social preferences can affect subsequent behavior. Researchers often measure social preferences by posing dictator...
