Divided Perceptions of Risk? A New Online Tool to Study the Many Flavors of Polarization
Polarization has become a major concern in behavioral science and popular media, as it may affect many important areas of life. For instance, how polarized are people's perceptions of risks, such as regarding (not) imposing mitigation measures during a pandemic? Answering this question is surprisingly challenging: Whereas multiple theoretical views of polarization and their respective mathematical operationalizations coexist, the latter are often…
Everybody wants to coach it, but fewer know how to do it
Background/objectivesIn recent years, the role of psychological training in youth sports has received increasing attention in both research and practice. The development of mental skills is important for sporting excellence, as it improves performance and helps athletes grow in their personality. This study aimed to explore the views of a wide range of stakeholders in youth sports on current practices, challenges, and opportunities related to men…
Convergence of Age Differences in Risk Preference, Impulsivity, and Self-Control
Our findings call for conceptual clarification and improved operationalization to capture the putative mechanisms underlying age-related differences in risk preference and related constructs
Identifying robust correlates of risk preference
916), and by adopting an exhaustive modeling approach-specification curve analysis. Our analyses of 6 candidate correlates (household income, sex, age, fluid intelligence, crystallized intelligence, years of education) suggest that sex and age have robust and consistent associations with risk preference, whereas the other candidate correlates show weaker and more (domain-) specific associations (except for crystallized intelligence, for which the…
Supplemental Material for Identifying Robust Correlates of Risk Preference
The self-reported propensity measures were collected in the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP; see https://paneldata.org/soep-is/inst/soep-is-2014-f/Q70 for the item measuring general risk preference, and https://paneldata.org/soep-is/inst/soep-is-2014-f/Q71 for the various items measuring domain-specific risk preference). Below we provide our own English translation of these items, as the translation in the official documentation does not entire…
Mapping risk perceptions in dynamic risk‐taking environments
Risk‐taking behavior is rarely a single action made in isolation but is often repeated and dynamic. Yet the role that risk perceptions play in risk taking have often been studied using descriptions of isolated single‐shot activities. To better understand the link between risk perceptions and risk‐taking behavior, we investigated risk perception in a dynamic choice environment, the Balloon Analogue Risk Task (BART). In the BART, participants repea…
Risk Preference
Psychology offers conceptual and analytic tools that can advance the discussion on the nature of risk preference and its measurement in the behavioral sciences. We discuss the revealed and stated preference measurement traditions, which have coexisted in both psychology and economics in the study of risk preferences, and explore issues of temporal stability, convergent validity, and predictive validity with regard to measurement of risk preferenc…
Risk preference shares the psychometric structure of major psychological traits
On the basis of 39 risk-taking measures, this study finds evidence for a general and stable factor of risk preference.
The risk elicitation puzzle
Decisions from Experience
The description–experience gap refers to the robust finding that learning about uncertain options via description or experience results in systematically different choices. This gap has previously been studied primarily with monetary gambles. Here, we examine search and choice processes in decisions from experience involving medical outcomes (side effects of medication). We compare these processes both to decisions from experience involving monet…
