Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Microeconomics
  • Statistics
  • Social psychology

His main research concerns Econometrics, Preference, Expected utility hypothesis, Prospect theory and Mathematical economics. Ulrich Schmidt has included themes like Willingness to accept, Willingness to pay and Pairwise comparison in his Econometrics study. His Preference study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Financial economics.

His Prospect theory research includes elements of Decision rule, Stochastic dominance, Loss aversion and Decision analysis. His Stochastic dominance research incorporates themes from Predictive power and Phenomenon. Risk aversion is the focus of his Mathematical economics research.

His most cited work include:

  • Third-generation prospect theory (179 citations)
  • Third-generation prospect theory (179 citations)
  • An Experimental Test of Loss Aversion (169 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Econometrics, Expected utility hypothesis, Mathematical economics, Prospect theory and Preference. Ulrich Schmidt integrates many fields in his works, including Econometrics and Context. His study on Von Neumann–Morgenstern utility theorem and Isoelastic utility is often connected to Axiom independence and Independence as part of broader study in Expected utility hypothesis.

His study in the field of Cumulative prospect theory and Risk aversion also crosses realms of Reduction. His Prospect theory study combines topics in areas such as Predictive power, Stochastic dominance and Loss aversion. His Preference research includes themes of Certainty effect and Certainty.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Econometrics (44.67%)
  • Expected utility hypothesis (27.33%)
  • Mathematical economics (21.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Econometrics (44.67%)
  • Risk taking (11.67%)
  • Demographic economics (10.67%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Ulrich Schmidt mainly focuses on Econometrics, Risk taking, Demographic economics, Expected utility hypothesis and Economic inequality. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Order and Econometrics. Among his Risk taking studies, you can observe a synthesis of other disciplines of science such as Prospect theory, Overconfidence effect, Actuarial science, Investment decisions and Intertemporal Decision-Making.

His Prospect theory research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Financial risk, Valuation and Developmental psychology. His Demographic economics research incorporates themes from Empirical evidence, Stereotype and Risk aversion. In the subject of general Expected utility hypothesis, his work in Cumulative prospect theory is often linked to Binary number, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Gender differences in social risk taking (11 citations)
  • Gender differences in social risk taking (11 citations)
  • Gender differences in social risk taking (11 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Microeconomics
  • Social psychology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Empirical evidence, Inequity aversion, Preference, Loss aversion and Emotional arousal. Ulrich Schmidt regularly ties together related areas like Demographic economics in his Empirical evidence studies. His Inequity aversion investigation overlaps with other areas such as Risk aversion, Risk taking, Reciprocity, Behavior change and Salience.

The concepts of his Preference study are interwoven with issues in Implicit-association test, Sustainable agriculture, Sustainable products, Sustainable consumption and Fundamental human needs. Ulrich Schmidt combines topics linked to Marketing with his work on Sustainable products. His research in Loss aversion intersects with topics in Negativity bias and Anticipation.
