Previous research on the processes involved in risky decisions has rarely linked process data to choice directly. We used a simple measure based on the relative amount of attentional deployment to different components (gains/losses and their probabilities) of a risky gamble during the choice process, and we related this measure to the actual choice.

Noisy preferences in risky choice: A cautionary note. [PDF]
We examine the effects of multiple sources of noise in risky decision making. Noise in the parameters that characterise an individual’s preferences can combine with noise in the response process to distort observed choice proportions.

Individual differences in impulsive and risky choice: effects of environmental rearing conditions [PDF]
The present experiment investigated early-rearing environment modulation of individual differences in impulsive and risky choice. Rats were reared in an isolated condition (IC; n = 12), in which they lived alone without novel stimuli, or an enriched ...

The formation of preference in risky choice. [PDF]
A key question in decision-making is how people integrate amounts and probabilities to form preferences between risky alternatives. Here we rely on the general principle of integration-to-boundary to develop several biologically plausible process models ...

Mechanisms Underlying Dopamine-Induced Risky Choice in Parkinson's Disease With and Without Depression (History). [PDF]
Patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) are often treated with dopaminergic medication. Dopaminergic medication is known to improve both motor and certain nonmotor symptoms, such as depression.

The day after the disaster: Risk-taking following large- and small-scale disasters in a microworld [PDF]
Using data from seven microworld experiments (N = 841), we investigated how participants reacted to simulated disasters with different risk profiles in a microworld.

Risky choice frames shift the structure and emotional valence of internal arguments: A query theory account of the unusual disease problem [PDF]
We examine a Query Theory account of risky choice framing effects — when risky choices are framed as a gain, people are generally risky averse but, when an equivalent choice is framed as a loss, people are risk seeking.

New paradoxes in intertemporal choice [PDF]
Similar to research on risky choice, the traditional analysis of intertemporal choice takes the view that an individual behaves so as to maximize the discounted sum of all future utilities.

Encoding Context Determines Risky Choice [PDF]
Both memory and choice are influenced by context: Memory is enhanced when encoding and retrieval contexts match, and choice is swayed by available options. Here, we assessed how context influences risky choice in an experience-based task in two main experiments (119 and 98 participants retained, respectively) and two additional experiments reported in ...
