In four experiments (including more than 1,300 subjects), we systematically studied the effects of boredom on economic risk preferences. Across different risk elicitation tasks, boredom inductions, incentive schemes, subject pools, and using both reduced form and structural analyses, we consistently failed to find an effect of boredom on risky decisions. Our results disprove that boredom leads to even small increments in risk taking in one-shot elicitation tasks, and small to medium increases in multiple-choice elicitations. These findings question an important established belief, contribute to better understand the consequences of boredom, and have substantive implications for experiments on economic decision making.This research was funded by the BBVA Foundation (Fundacion BBVA-EI-2019-D.Navarro), Ramon Areces Foundation (Fundacion Ramon Areces 2019-Navarro), Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation (PID2019-105249GB-I00), and the Velux Foundations (PN38727).Cambridge University Press202320232022info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10230/56664http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/S1930297500009347reponame:Recercat.
