Title: Native-migrant differences in risk attitudes
Description: "This paper questions the perceived wisdom that migrants are more risk-loving than the native population. We employ a new large German survey of direct individual risk measures to find that first-generation migrants have lower risk attitudes than natives, which only equalize in the second generation"--Forschungsinstitut zur Zukunft der Arbeit web site.
