Abstract

This study attempts to differentiate between the effects of loss aversion and the house money effect ("THME") on CEO decision making by examining outcomes consequential to the CEO: her/his compensation mix and exercisable but unexercised options. We find more general support for THME, and moderating effects from firm prominence.
