Abstract

Among recently suggested elicitation procedures for risk preferences, the “bomb” risk elicitation task (bret) by Crosetto and Filippin (2013) gained noticeable attention. This article presents a ready-to-use software module for use with oTree (Chen et al., 2015) which allows for easily conducting the bret in numerous different variants, tapping the potential and advantages of state-of-the-art web programming technologies oTree is based on. In a user-friendly and straightforward way, predefined and thoroughly documented variables are specified in a separate file, providing full control over different aspects of game play. Furthermore, the application is prepared for multilingual use, providing a convenient way for translation into different languages. Additionally offered Stata script files facilitate data processing and the evaluation of individual level risk preferences.
