DOI: 10.1002/hec.3620
Abstract: Vaccination involves a tradeoff between two risky alternatives, namely, susceptibility and immunization. By designing a controlled laboratory experiment, we investigate the association between risk preferences and immunization decisions. To contrast the role of risk preferences… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10683-017-9541-4
Abstract: We study prudence and temperance (next to risk aversion) in social settings. Previous experimental studies have shown that these higher-order risk preferences affect the choices of individuals deciding privately on lotteries that only affect their… read more here.

Abstract: We obtain rich measures of the risk preferences of a sample of Vietnamese farmers, and revisit the link between risk preferences and economic well-being. Far from being particularly risk averse, our farmers are on average… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-00358-8
Abstract: People tend to avoid risk in the domain of gains but take risks in the domain of losses; this is called the reflection effect. Formal theories of decision-making have provided important perspectives on risk preferences,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/01605682.2017.1390525
Abstract: Abstract The order behaviour of newsvendors has been extensively analysed in the behavioural operations literature and a robust observation has been that average order quantities are between expected-profit-maximising quantities and mean demand. This “pull-to-center” effect… read more here.
