Role Taking Under Financial Risk Decision Making
Authors: not saved
Abstract:
This paper explores people’s behavior when they are facing financial risks. Through the setting of an economics experiment, people’s willingness to bear financial risks and their tendency to impose risks on others are investigated. The experiment result shows that most people are risk-neutral or risk-averse when making decision under financial environment, and their tendency to impose risks on others is directly related to their own willingness to bear risks.

full textAcute stress modulates risk taking in financial decision making.
People's decisions are often susceptible to various demands exerted by the environment, leading to stressful conditions. Although a goal for researchers is to elucidate stress-coping mechanisms to facilitate decision-making processes, it is important to first understand the interaction between the state created by a stressful environment and how decisions are performed in such environments. The...
full textExpert Financial Advice Neurobiologically “Offloads” Financial Decision-Making under Risk
BACKGROUND Financial advice from experts is commonly sought during times of uncertainty. While the field of neuroeconomics has made considerable progress in understanding the neurobiological basis of risky decision-making, the neural mechanisms through which external information, such as advice, is integrated during decision-making are poorly understood. In the current experiment, we investigat...
full textBehavioural Financial Decision Making Under Uncertainty
Ever since von Neumann and Morgenstern published the axiomisation of Expected Utility Theory, there have been a considerable amount of observations appeared in the literature violating the expected utility theory. To make decisions under uncertainty, people generally separate possible outcomes into gains and losses. They are risk averse for gains but risk seeking for losses with very large prob...
full textRapid decision-making under risk.
Impulsivity is often characterized by rapid decisions under risk, but most current tests of decision-making do not impose time pressures on participants' choices. Here we introduce a new traffic lights test which requires people to choose whether to program a risky, early eye movement before a traffic light turns green (earning them high rewards or a penalty) or wait for the green light before ...
full textRisk averse decision making under catastrophic risk
A nonstandard probabilistic setting for modeling of the risk of catastrophic events is presented. It allows random variables to take on infinitely large negative values with non-zero probability, which corresponds to catastrophic consequences unmeasurable in monetary terms, e.g. loss of human lives. Thanks to this extension, the safety-first principle is proved to be consistent with traditional...
