The Nature of Risk Preferences: Evidence from Insurance Choices
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use data on households' deductible choices in auto and home insurance to estimate a structural model of risky choice that incorporates "standard" risk aversion (concave utility over …nal wealth), loss aversion, and nonlinear probability weighting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Entry costs and cross-country differences in productivity and output
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of entry barriers on productivity and output using instrumental variable regressions has been investigated and it has been shown that higher entry costs significantly reduce output per worker and that they do so by lowering total factor productivity.

Are Risk Preferences Stable Across Contexts? Evidence from Insurance Data
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors test whether households' deductible choices in auto and home insurance reflect stable risk preferences using a unique data set, and they find that many households exhibit greater risk aversion in their home deductible choices than their auto deductible choices.
