Mexico has one of the largest overweight and obesity epidemics in the world and as a response, several actions aiming to reduce the obesity epidemic have been already set in place. Some of these actions include a specific action program for schools looking to turn the scholar env... |

Buckert, Magdalena; Oechssler, Jörg; Schwieren, Christiane, 2017, "Imitation under stress [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/VYCCZI, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:MAZqxVN4vzEoCVKBRyl1KQ== [fileUNF]
Imitation has been shown to be an important heuristic, in particular in relatively complex environments. In this experiment we test whether subjects are more likely to use imitation if they are under time pressure or distracted. Subjects play a repeated Cournot oligopoly. Treatme... |

Kocher, Martin G.; Lahno, Amrei Marie; Trautmann,Stefan T., 2017, "Ambiguity aversion is not universal [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/BU56YA, heiDATA, V1
Assuming universal ambiguity aversion, an extensive theoretical literature studies how ambiguity can account for market anomalies from the perspective of expected utility-based theories. We provide a systematic experimental assessment of ambiguity attitudes in different likelihoo... |
König-Kersting, Christian; Trautmann, Stefan T., 2017, "Countercyclical Risk Aversion: Beyond Financial Professionals [Online Appendix and Replication Package]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/HLGUFF, heiDATA, V3, UNF:6:uf5BEfv2apPfRJhp2qW+Kw== [fileUNF]
We test if Cohn et al.’s (2015) experimental results on countercyclical risk aversion exhibited by financial professionals generalize to a standard student sample. In our sample, we do not find an effect of stock market bust or boom on subjects’ investments. We do not find a syst... |

Reischmann, Andreas; Oechssler, Jörg, 2018, "The Binary Conditional Contribution Mechanism for public good provision in dynamic settings - Theory and experimental evidence [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/QHN1KT, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:oGAQOEsaP2z2MtFReyc6Uw== [fileUNF]
We present a new and simple mechanism for repeated public good environments. In the Binary Conditional Contribution Mechanism (BCCM), every agent's message has the form, “I am willing to contribute to the public good if at least k agents contribute in total.” This mechanism offer... |

Apesteguia, Jose; Huck, Steffen; Oechssler, Jörg; Weidenholzer, Elke; Weidenholzer, Simon, 2018, "Imitation of Peers in Children and Adults [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/HFTMST, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:QDuPhtFcF3CPULh+tQIpJQ== [fileUNF]
Imitation of the successful choices of others is a simple and superficially attractive learning rule. It has been shown to be an important driving force for the strategic behavior of (young) adults. In this study we examine whether imitation is prevalent in the behavior of childr... |
Trautmann, Stefan T.; Wakker, Peter P., 2018, "Making the Anscombe-Aumann approach to ambiguity suitable for descriptive applications [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/HNN1FW, heiDATA, V1
The Anscombe-Aumann (AA) model, originally introduced to give a normative basis to expected utility, is nowadays mostly used for another purpose: to analyze deviations from expected utility due to ambiguity (unknown probabilities). The AA model makes two ancillary assumptions tha... |
Kirchmaier, Isadora; Jens Prüfer; Trautmann, Stefan T., 2018, "Religion, moral attitudes and economic behavior [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/PJ8CJU, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:MuyPmqfxkF5LETTP7Zp3OA== [fileUNF]
Using data for a representative sample of the Dutch population with information about participants’ religious background, we study the association between religion and moral behavior and attitudes. We find that religious people are less accepting of unethical economic behavior (e... |
Kocher, Martin G.; Schindler, David; Trautmann, Stefan T.; Xu, Yilong, 2018, "Risk, time pressure, and selection effects [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/GBKK4O, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:pP3XUM9b1UVsjEaoU0RTig== [fileUNF]
Time pressure is a central aspect of economic decision making nowadays. It is therefore natural to ask how time pressure affects decisions, and how to detect individual heterogeneity in the ability to successfully cope with time pressure. In the context of risky decisions, we ask... |
