摘要：

This paper studies risk attitudes of unemployed job seekers and their relationship to self-reported reservation wages. We find that Fisk aversion is prevalent, and that reservation wages decrease slightly over time. Furthermore, risk aversion and reservation wages are negatively correlated. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
