Using a sample of 128 undergraduate business students, we find that participants with higher BMI exhibit greater utility function curvature, greater loss aversion, and greater inability to delay gratification.

Review of Finance, 2005Abstract We investigate the way investors react to prior gains/losses. We directly examine investor reactions to different definitions of gains and losses (i.e., overall wealth, paper gains and losses, and realized capital gains and losses) and investigate how gains and losses in one category of wealth (e.g., real estate) affect holdings

Alphas have two sources—unique information or the ability to exploit somebody else’s behavioral bias. The research reported here explored the relationship of low and high predictability (past forecast errors of earnings per share) to investor returns. Surprisingly, high-predictability stocks provided higher returns with substantially less risk than low-

Behavioral Biases and Investment Research
AIMR Conference Proceedings, 1995The strategy of investing in companies with low price-to-book ratios continues to be successful in the long term. Historical evidence on reversion to the mean justifies the strategy, but it is seldom consistently pursued because environmental pressures on investment analysts make the strategy almost unbearable to maintain.

Attentional Biases during Steering Behavior
2013In the current study, we examine eye movements of human operators during a combined steering and discrimination task. In this task, observers had to alternate their gaze between a central steering task and a discrimination task in the periphery. Our results show that the observer's gaze behavior is influenced by the motion direction of the steering ...
