• A Reference-Dependent Model of the Price–Quality Heuristic (2014, background): “Sprenger (2011) designed studies to distinguish these two types of preferences, which enabled him to show that they differ in the level of risk aversion they predict.”
• Goal Setting and Energy Conservation (2014, background): “For example, Meier and Sprenger (2010) show that experimentally measured present bias is highly correlated with credit card borrowing, while Ikeda et al. (2010) find that procrastination is positively correlated with body mass index.”
• Peer effects in risk taking: Envy or conformity? (2015, background): “The position of lottery A and B on the screen (left or right) was also randomized across subjects to avoid systematic reference point effects (Sprenger, 2012).”
