Aversión al riesgo, preferencia temporal y variables socioeconómicas: evidencia de un pueblo de Colombia
En este artículo presento evidencia exploratoria para el caso de Colombia sobre la relación entre ciertas variables socioeconómicas e indicadores de preferencias individuales. Aplicamos una encuesta de hogares y tomamos medidas de preferencia temporal y aversión al riesgo a una muestra de habitantes de Barranca de Upía (Meta). Encuentro que i. La edad está asociada con la preferencia temporal revelada, pero no a la aversión al riesgo revelada; ii. Las mujeres son más aversas al riesgo, y iii. El hecho de haber llegado al pueblo en los últimos cinco años, bien sea buscando oportunidades económicas o huyendo del conflicto armado, está asociado a una alta preferencia temporal revelada y una baja aversión al riesgo revelada.
