Loss aversion, risk aversion, and the probability weighting function (PWF) are three central concepts in explaining … decisionmaking under risk. I examine interlinkages between these concepts in a model of decisionmaking that allows for loss averse … commonly observed shapes of PWF and to risk aversion.

In this paper we investigate how volatility shocks influence investors' perceptions about a stock's risk, its future … development, and investors' investment propensity. We ran artefactual field experiments with two participant pools (finance … professionals and students) that had to take investment decisions, differing in (i) the direction of the shock (down, up, straight …
