Essays on the Multidimensionality of Individual Risk and Competitive Preferences.
This doctoral dissertation explores how risk and competitiveness subdimensions influence various methodological and theoretical topics. It is organized into four chapters:
Chapter 1: At Risk of Loss
This chapter examines how loss aversion affects self-reported risk attitudes, compromising discriminant validity. A new measure is proposed to address this issue.
Chapter 2: Structural Rivalry and Individual Competence Two distinct types of perceived competition are explored: structural competition, driven by goal-incompatible incentives, and individual competitiveness, shaped by effort and skill demands.
Chapter 3: Competitiveness Subdimensions, Gender, and Personality A new model of trait competitiveness is introduced with three subdimensions: desire to win, enjoyment of competition, and personal development. Their associations with gender and personality traits are analyzed.
Chapter 4: Heterogeneous Effects of Competition on Performance This chapter explains null meta-analytic findings on competition and performance through heterogeneous treatment effects, supported by experimental evidence.
