choices being observed, compared to anonymity of choices, on risk taking in a laboratory experiment. I relate participants …' investments in a risky asset directly to social norms for risk taking that are elicited in an incentivized procedure. I find that … risk taking is not affected by the choice being observed by a matched participant. Nor do investments follow elicited norms …

language may influence risk perception and investment behavior, no study has explored the causal effects of linguistic … asked to answer an extensive questionnaire covering risk perception and individual characteristics such as Big 5 personality … and financial literacy. Empirically, we observe a significant positive impact of linguistic uncertainty on risk perception …

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

We develop a new protocol, adapted from the Eckel and Grossman (2002, 2008) risk measure, to elicit skewness … preferences. The new lottery choices have the same expected payoffs and risk (variance) as the original choices, but with … increasing degrees of positive skewness. We find that our subjects are skewness-seekers. More importantly, positive skewness in …
