Risk Aversion Revisited

The Journal of Finance, 1983
ABSTRACTIn order to supply additional empirical evidence of the effect of wealth on relative risk aversion, this study investigates households' demand for risky assets, using analysis of covariance techniques applied to the asset holdings of Canadian individual households. The extent and pattern of life‐cycle effects are also examined.

Risk Aversion and Arbitrage

The Journal of Finance, 1985
ABSTRACTThis paper characterizes conditions under which asset returns and consumption are consistent with risk‐averse preferences. It is shown that risk aversion is equivalent to “zero arbitrage” on a transformation of the payoff space. The implicit state prices which are dual to this no‐arbitrage condition can be interpreted as prices of “pure ...

Uncertain risk aversion

Journal of Intelligent Manufacturing, 2014
This paper discusses the risk aversion within the framework of the uncertainty theory (Liu in Uncertainty theory: A branch of mathematics for modeling human uncertainty. Springer, Berlin, 2010b), and introduces the notions of uncertain expected utility and uncertain risk premium.

On Multivariate Risk Aversion

Econometrica, 1979
This paper develops a matrix-measure of multivariate risk aversion which is related to a notion of risk premium and states the restrictions that must be imposed upon the matrix-measures of two utility functions in order that one require a higher risk premium than another for every small multivariate risk.

The Economic Journal, 1995
In a contest, participants spend money or effort to increase their chances of winning a prize. The authors examine primarily the following question: Could the timid (the more risk averse) have a better chance of winning in contests? Under limited liability the answer is always positive.

Aversion to risk and guilt

Clinical Psychology & Psychotherapy, 2004
AbstractMuch research has shown that cognitive processes are largely guided by individuals' states of mind (Mancini & Gangemi, 2002a, in press; Smeets, de Jong, & Mayer, 2000). In this paper, we specifically consider a state of mind characterized by guilt for having acted irresponsibly. This state is currently considered the breeding ground for

Are Banks Risk-averse? [PDF]

open access: possibleEastern Economic Journal, 2007
The paper investigates, and estimates, banks’ risk aversion that is factored into the spread between the interest rate on time deposits and the interest rate on non-time deposits. The estimation results indicate that the relative risk aversion coefficient estimates of individual banks fall between 0 and 1, but mostly around 0.2, thereby indicating that
