{"product_id":"emotions-and-risky-choice-franziska-pilz-9783836455411","title":"Emotions and Risky Choice","description":"The objective of the present book is to show that emotions have to be taken se-riously in a satisfactory explanation of economically relevant risky choice be-haviour. Therefore, theoretical and experimental evidence on emotions and risky choice is provided from an interdisciplinary perspective, integrating eco-nomic and psychological approaches. Thereby, the theoretical study will ex-plore how the 'psychology of emotions' may find its way in economic analysis in order to enhance the explanatory value of economic models of risky choice. Des-pite growing interest in the topic of emotion in theoretical economic re-search, empirical (i.e. experimental) economic research concerning emotions and risky choice is still in its infancy. The reported experimental study helps to fill this gap. The author investigates whether and how emotions measured through self-reports affect risky choice modelled as a dynamic investment choice. The experimental study will show that actual risky choices deviate from standard economic predictions and emotions are able to provide an ex-pla-nation for the observed (risky choice) behaviour.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Franziska Pilz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3836455412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783836455411\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/18\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.29d","brand":"Franziska Pilz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446421893375,"sku":"9783836455411","price":63.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1251643d-084d-4d92-8a35-42943385981f.jpg?v=1777224520","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emotions-and-risky-choice-franziska-pilz-9783836455411","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
