Encuesta de condiciones de vida y hábitos de los estudiantes universitarios en la Escuela Politécnica Nacional (PIS-DM-04-2018) : determinación de la aversión al riesgo y la impaciencia de los estudiantes universitarios en Ecuador.

Abstract

In economics, the analysis of risk and time are important factors on which predefined assumptions are commonly made, which, several experimental studies have shown, are not exogenous and therefore are relevant within behavioral models. This research proposes two types of experiments to determine the indicators of risk aversion and impatience in such a way that it is possible to find those sociodemographic, behavioral, economic and lifestyle factors that have a great influence on the variation of said indicators. The design entails the choice of the best methodology among those found in the literature, as well as the selection of the necessary tools to carry out the study in such a way as to facilitate implementation in a context of developing countries, taking Ecuador as an example.
