Risk Preferences Are Not Time Preferences: Separating Risk and Time Preference: Comment
American Economic Review, 2015Andreoni and Sprenger (2012a,b) observe that utility functions are distinct for risk and time preferences, and show that their findings are consistent with a preference for certainty. We revisit this question in an enriched experimental setting in which subjects make intertemporal decisions under different risk conditions.

Journal of Political Economy, 1971This paper examines the optimal portfolio composition for a risk-preferrer who is a gambler. His indifference curves in the expected return-risk space are shown to be convex to the origin under the assumption of decreasing risk preference, and his efficient opportunity locus is in general discontinuous and convex.

The Risk Preferences of U.S. Executives
Management Science, 2015In this paper, I elicit risk attitudes of U.S. executives by calibrating a subjective option valuation model for option exercising data (1996 to 2008), yielding approximately 65,000 values of relative risk aversion (RRA) for almost 7,000 executives. The observed behavior is generally consistent with moderate risk aversion and a median (mean) RRA close

Risk Sharing with a Time Preference
Decision AnalysisClassic risk sharing results determine the optimal share of each member in a group that faces a present deal by maximizing the sum of expected utilities of the group members. For decision-makers with exponential utility functions, this formulation is equivalent to maximizing the sum of certain equivalents of the group members.
