Risk-Taking, risks and rewards perception
The thrill of danger
Risk-taking is defined as behaviors with uncertain outcomes that are likely to result in both losses and potential rewards. Current models agree on the positive influence of reward perception on risk-taking behavior. However, it remains unclear how the combined perception of risks and rewards influences engagement in various types of risk-taking, particularly when considering the moderating effects of age and gender. It is still uncertain whether…
Adjustment of Adolescents and Young Adults to the Level of Risk in Ambiguous Risk‐Taking Situation
Adolescent risk‐taking generally occurs in ambiguous situations where decisions must rely on experiential learning. Although adolescence is characterized by heightened exploration in such situations, this does not systematically lead to optimal risk adjustment based on feedback learning. This study examines initial exploration and risk adjustment through feedback in ambiguous situations. The Risk Learning Card Task (RLCT), distinguishing three le…

Development of ambiguity aversion from early adolescence to adulthood
This research aimed to clarify whether middle adolescents’ risk-taking is driven by reduced ambiguity aversion. In Study 1, we explored the development of ambiguity aversion using an adaptation of the classic Ellsberg paradox with early adolescents (10–11 years old), middle adolescents (14–16 years old), and young adults (20–25 years old). Study 2 examined the development of ambiguity aversion depending on the ambiguity level in middle adolescenc…
Is adolescence believed to be a period of greater risk taking than adulthood
Little is known about adolescents’ own beliefs regarding their level of risk taking or regarding peer influence on the latter. This is an important matter given that beliefs influence judgements and decisions. With the present study, we aimed to study adolescents’ and adults’ beliefs about adolescents’ risk taking compared to adults’ risk taking, and beliefs about peer influence on risk taking. To this end, an experimental design was used. A cros…
Opposite Effect of Social Evaluation on Creative Idea Generation in Early and Middle Adolescents
The aim of the present study was to examine how social evaluation influences creative idea generation, and whether this effect develops with age. To do so, early adolescents, middle adolescents, and late adolescents performed a creative task either alone or under the supervision of an adult examiner. Three major findings emerged: 1) the social evaluation by an adult expert is detrimental to creativity in children but 2) beneficial in adolescence,…
Peers' Choices Influence Adolescent Risk‐taking Especially When Explicit Risk Information is Lacking
This study examines the impact of peers' previous cautious versus risky choices on adolescents' risk-taking depending on the level of information about the risk. Adolescents completed an adaptation of the BART that manipulated social influence (cautious and risky) and risk information (i.e., informed, noninformed). Results showed that social influence impacts adolescents' decisions on the noninformed BART but not on the informed BART. In the noni…
How Does Explicit Versus Implicit Risk Information Influence Adolescent Risk‐Taking Engagement
Adolescents have been shown to be more likely to engage in risky behaviors in daily life. Many studies have indicated that adolescents could make advantageous choices when they receive explicit information but could fail to choose advantageously when they are not informed about risks. The current study aimed to examine the influence of explicit risk information (i.e., when risk information is directly available) versus implicit risk information (…
