I modify the skewed lottery task introduced by Grossman and Eckel (Journal of Risk and Uncertainty, 51(3), 2015) to eliminate the effects of loss aversion as a potentially confounding explanation for the strong preference for skewed lotteries and increase in risk taking that they observe when skew increases. I also test for framing effects by reversing the order of the task. Like previous studies, a majority of subjects prefer skewed lotteries relative to those with no skew, but this preference is dampened when loss aversion is eliminated as a confound and the order of the task is reverse. More importantly, introducing skew is unlikely to cause an increase in risk taking in this task.

我修改了Grossman and Eckel（Journal of Risk and Uncertainty，51（3），2015）引入的偏斜彩票任务，以消除损失规避的影响，这可能是对偏斜彩票的强烈偏爱和冒险承担的混淆性解释他们观察歪斜何时增加。我还通过反转任务的顺序来测试帧效果。像以前的研究一样，相对于没有偏斜的受试者，大多数受试者更喜欢偏斜的彩票，但是当消除损失厌恶作为混淆因素并且任务的顺序相反时，这种偏好就会减弱。更重要的是，引入偏斜不太可能导致承担此任务的风险增加。
