Abstract

This chapter begins with the development of the hypotheses, which regard the relationship between chronic regulatory focus with asset (H1) and portfolio (H2) allocation. The dependent variable (asset and portfolio allocation), independent variable (chronic regulatory focus) and the control variables (gender, age group, ethnicity, marital status, education and financial literacy) will then be reviewed. The means of measurement for these variables will then conclude the chapter.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Common method variance is variance that is attributable to the measurement method rather than the constructs that the measures represent (Podsakoff et al. 2003).

  2. 2.

    Fixation is the maintaining of the visual gaze on a single location.

  3. 3.

    AOI techniques refer to displays wherein an area on the screen has been highlighted beforehand, and all fixations within this area will be recorded by the eye-tracking software.

  4. 4.

    Saccades are quick, simultaneous movements of both eyes in the same direction.

  5. 5.

    Overt attention is the direction of one’s senses toward a certain stimulus. Covert attention is the act of focusing on one of several possible stimuli.

  6. 6.

    Financial literacy is defined as the ability to make informed judgments and to take effective decisions regarding the use and management of money (Noctor et al. 1992).
