Loss Aversion and Skewed Financial Risk Taking across Adulthood

Year: 2017

Type: preprint

Abstract: In a previous study, we found age differences in the tendency to accept more positively-skewed gambles (with a small chance of a large win) than other equivalent risks, or an age-related positive-skew bias. In the present study, we examined whether loss aversion explained this bias.
