Resumo(s)
How does personality influence the support for MCES protection programs? To analyse this I use
a representative data-set consisting of stated preferences of participants in a DCE regarding oil
spill prevention in Portugal’s coastal region. Reducing "personality" to the Five Factor Model
I find that some traits indeed show significance in explaining choices for MCES protection
in Portugal. Individuals with higher levels of Openness and Consciousness have a lower
preference for the status quo. Higher levels of Agreeableness of individuals come with a
stronger preference for the Status Quo. Emotional Stability is on the verge of being significant.
