Journal Article
Andersen, S., Lau, M., Harrison, G., & Rutstrom, E. (2008). Lost in state space: are preferences stable?. International Economic Review, 49(3), 1091-1112. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1468-2354.2008.00507.x

We use field experiments to examine the temporal stability of risk preferences. Over a 17-month period, we elicited risk preferences from subjects chosen to be representative of the adult Danish population. During this period we revisited many of the...

Eliciting risk and time preferences (2008)
Journal Article

We design experiments to jointly elicit risk and time preferences for the adult Danish population. Since subjects are generally risk averse, we find that joint elicitation provides estimates of discount rates that are significantly lower than those f...
