Title: Some Experimental Evidence on Type Stability and Response Times.
Abstract: Experimental economics uses response times as a tool to evaluate the instinctiveness of choices and behaviours. They have been used to define types of subjects, 
but never to evaluate the stability of such types. This paper defines stability of types in terms of the variability exhibited by the choices made by an individual 
in a repeated experiment. The analysis of response times and type stability shows that stability is more instinctive than instability, supporting the idea that types exist 
and that deviations require cognitive effort.
