Abstract: The interval measurement approach was used to obtain risk preference measures for 23 Michigan farmers in 1979 and again in 1981. This paper analyzes how the risk preferences of this group of decision makers changed over a two year time period. It finds that risk preferences were most stable near typical personal income levels.
