Abstract
The three projects of this thesis investigate consumers' financial decision making. For two projects I employ survey questions to elicit subjects' preferences and link these to insurance demand decisions. In the third project I conduct an experiment on a representative sample to find out how prospect theory should best be applied to an intertemporal context.
