The authors analyze the impact of individuals' degree extraversion and neuroticism on their decision making in an experimental asset market. To establish this link between research markets social psychology use a unique approach that combines questionnaire designed to assess market individual financial making. dataset 364 undergraduate business students' responses trading behavior find significantly influence Specifically, more extraverted individuals pay higher prices for assets they buy...
We demonstrate 32.5 Tbit/s 16QAM Nyquist WDM transmission over a total length of 227 km SMF-28 without optical dispersion compensation. A number 325 carriers are derived from single laser and encoded with dual-polarization data using sinc-shaped pulses. As we use no guard bands, the have spacing 12.5 GHz equal to bandwidth data. achieve high net spectral efficiency 6.4 bit/s/Hz software-defined transmitter which generates electrical modulator drive signals in real-time.
ABSTRACT We initiate a questionnaire‐based stock price forecast competition to analyze participants' perception of different amounts information and the impact on estimates. The results show that providing more increases perceived amount relevant but does not alter estimates their accuracy. Individual characteristics, such as gender, financial knowledge, or overconfidence, do affect these findings. This means added acts placebic leads illusion. However, has an individual expectations about...
We analyze the influence of individuals’ degree extraversion and neuroticism on determinants their risk-taking behavior in investment decisions. As there are no studies that investigate personality traits risk attitude, perception, return expectations decisions simultaneously, we provide a meaningful contribution to existing literature. use unique data set contains 342 undergraduate business students’ questionnaire responses measuring as well expectations. Therefore, able identify which...
Abstract We survey 231 undergraduate students to analyze how retail investors’ characteristics influence their decision use a robo-advisor. Characteristics such as the willingness take risk, extraversion, and optimism are significant in univariate tests but risk internal locus of control multivariate settings. Participants who robo-advisor invest more likely also on own both stocks bonds. find statistically differences between participants exclusively for investments bonds some money own.
Recent years have brought a gradual shift of responsibility for pension provisions, financial planning, health care and various insurances from governmental institutions firms to individuals. To tackle this challenge, individuals need applied literacy not merely theoretical knowledge about products mechanisms that does reflect real‐life situations. We survey 448 business students in Canada, Denmark, Germany Iceland examine how is expressed their portfolios. contrast these findings with the...

Findings Young aversion not constant but increases with stake sizes. better predictor for their than set...
Developing therapeutics for neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) prevalent in the aging population remains a daunting challenge. With growing understanding that many NDs progress by conformational self-templating of specific proteins, prototypical prion offer platform ND drug discovery. We evaluated high-throughput screening hits with aryl amide scaffold and explored structure–activity relationships around three series differing their N-aryl core: benzoxazole, benzothiazole, cyano. Potent...
Abstract Robo-advisers enable investors to establish an automated rebalancing strategy for a portfolio usually consisting of stocks and bonds. Since households’ portfolios additionally include further frequently tradable assets like real estate funds, articles great value cash(-equivalents), we analyze whether households would benefit from service that automatically rebalances which includes the latter assets. In contrast previous studies, this paper relies on real-world household...
Real-world portfolio composition is often far from being mean-variance optimal. One of the phenomena documented in investment portfolios home-bias effect, that is, investors hold a higher-than-optimal portion domestic assets. Analyzing hand-collected data annual reports German mutual funds, we find strong evidence for home-biased selection years 2000–2003. Besides this document "Europe bias," equities European countries are strongly overrepresented. Furthermore, bounded rationality private...

Their empirical analysis reflects exposure government policies in two ways.
Bis heute stellt das Paradigma der Neoklassik und ihrer neueren Formen (Institutionenökonomik, Informationsökonomik) die wichtigste theoretische Grundlage Verbraucherpolitik dar. Heute sucht diese jedoch nach neuen, empirisch basierten Konzepten für ihre strategische Ausrichtung. Eine vielversprechende Entwicklung hat sich in jüngerer Zeit mit Verhaltensökonomie (Behavioral Economics) ergeben. So interessieren Committee on Consumer Policy OECD, Europäische Kommission sowie verschiedene...
