The impact of (social) anchors on Prospect Theory’s value function
Anchoring impacts risk-taking decisions. This paper provides experimental evidence (n = 744) that (social) anchors shift the Prospect Theory’s value function (Kahneman and Tversky, 1979; Tversky and Kahneman, 1992). We observe that extreme (social) anchors lead to shifts in the value function, indicating a change in risk-taking. Anchors that are in line with risk-averse (risk-seeking) behavior lead, relative to the baseline, to more risk-averse (risk-seeking) decisions. Our findings are similar for social and non-social environments.
期刊介绍:
The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance (QREF) attracts and publishes high quality manuscripts that cover topics in the areas of economics, financial economics and finance. The subject matter may be theoretical, empirical or policy related. Emphasis is placed on quality, originality, clear arguments, persuasive evidence, intelligent analysis and clear writing. At least one Special Issue is published per year. These issues have guest editors, are devoted to a single theme and the papers have well known authors. In addition we pride ourselves in being able to provide three to four article "Focus" sections in most of our issues.
