Tiivistelmä: | This study estimates individual risk attitudes using controlled experiments in the field in Denmark. The experiments were performed across Denmark using a representative sample of over 250 people of ages from 19 to 75 years. Risk attitudes are estimated for various individuals differentiated by socio-demographic characteristics. Among others, the results indicate that the average Dane is risk averse, and that risk neutrality is an inappropriate assumption to apply etc. |
