Eliciting risk preferences: When is simple better?
TL;DR: This work studies the estimation of risk preferences with experimental data and focuses on the trade-offs when choosing between two different elicitation methods that have different degrees of difficulty for subjects, finding that subjects’ numerical skills can help assess this tradeoff.
Journal ArticleDOI
Confirmation bias with motivated beliefs
Gary Charness,Chetan Dave +1 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that players with motivated beliefs deviate less from Bayesian updating, however, such players still exhibit a confirmation bias in that they place additional weight on confirming information, in contrast to Bayesians.

Eliciting Risk Preferences: When is Simple Better?
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the trade-offs that arise when choosing between two different elicitation methods that have different degrees of difficulty for subjects and find that subjects' numerical skills can help better assess this tradeoff.

Structural Macroeconometrics: Second Edition
David N. DeJong,Chetan Dave +1 more
TL;DR: The authors look at recent strides that have been made to enhance numerical efficiency, consider the expanded applicability of dynamic factor models, and examine the use of alternative assumptions involving learning and rational inattention on the part of decision makers.
