In this research, a regression model with panel data, developed to test the hypothesis which formed on this research, by using two dependent variables ROA and Tobin's Q to see if both variable are supporting the previous research. The results of empirical research prove that both models formed proved that loss aversion impacted negative affect on both selected dependent variables, whether it is with additional control variable or not.
