Risk homeostasis theory - A study of intrinsic compensation [PDF]

, 1996
Risk homeostasis theory (RHT) suggests that changes made to the intrinsic risk of environments are negated in one of three ways: behavioural adjustments within the environment, mode migration, and avoidance of the physical risk.
