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 …

Drawing upon a large sample of the US population (n=3,982), we show that the phenomenon generalizes to risk … experience. Experiencing adverse outcomes caused by another human reduces future risk-taking, but experiencing the same outcome …

We report on a laboratory experiment testing for the presence of loss aversion, as separate from risk aversion … loss by experimental participants. Our experimental design augments the Holt-Laury risk preference elicitation methodology … additional reluctance to participate in a mixed domain lottery beyond that predicted by risk aversion. We show that only …
