| Research Abstract |
We made an experiment, using the method of simulated stock market, to analyze the investor's characteristics in investment behavior. As a result, we clarified as follows : It was affected by their risk attitude whether investors followed market trends or not ; disposition effect was affected only by degree of proficiency, which meant that professional traders could avoid disposition effect. On the other hand, it was also clarified that investors' risk attitude had no influence on their physiological states which could be measured by aspiration, pulse, skin conductance response (SCR). In addition, we could suggest a possibility, by analyzing actual price data in the Japanese and US stock markets and by making simulations based on an artificial market model, that investors' trend-chasing behavior affected inefficient price formation in the markets.
