‘Tis better to choose and lose than to never choose at all [PDF]

open access: yesJudgment and Decision Making, 2017
When decisions involve opting in or out of competition many decision makers will opt-in even when doing so leads to losses on average. In the current paper, we examine the generality of this effect in risky choices not involving competition.

Investigating the Neural Bases of Risky Decision Making Using Multi-Voxel Pattern Analysis

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Choices between smaller certain reward and larger riskier reward are referred to as risky decision making. Numerous functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have investigated the neural substrates of risky decision making via conventional ...

Reward context determines risky choice in pigeons and humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Whereas humans are risk averse for monetary gains, other animals can be risk seeking for food rewards, especially when faced with variable delays or under significant deprivation.

Is payoff necessarily weighted by probability when making a risky choice? Evidence from functional connectivity analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
How people make decisions under risk remains an as-yet-unresolved but fundamental question. Mainstream theories about risky decision making assume that the core processes involved in reaching a risky decision include weighting each payoff or reward ...

Social comparison and risky choices [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Uncertainty, 2009
Theories (and experiments) on decision making under risk typically ignore (and exclude) a social context. We explore whether this omission is detrimental. To do so we experimentally investigate the simplest possible situation with both social comparison and risk: participants choose between two lotteries while a referent faces a fixed payoff ...

Risky weighting in discrete choice [PDF]

open access: yesTransportation Research Part B: Methodological, 2017
This paper presents a new approach to discrete choice analysis for risky prospects. Conventional discrete choice analysis focuses on riskless prospects and does not deal with the scenario where the alternatives that the decision-makers choose from are associated with risk.

Positive risk taking and neural sensitivity to risky decision making in adolescence

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2022
This study examines associations between adolescents’ positive risk taking and neural activation during risky decision-making. Participants included 144 adolescents ages 13–16 years (Mage = 14.23; SDage = 0.7) from diverse racial and ethnic groups ...

Neural Dynamics of Processing Probability Weight and Monetary Magnitude in the Evaluation of a Risky Reward

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
Risky decision-making involves risky reward valuation, choice, and feedback processes. However, the temporal dynamics of risky reward processing are not well understood.

Evaluating a dual-proces model of risk: Affect and cognition as determinants of risky choice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In three studies we addressed the impact of perceived risk and negative affect on risky choice. In Study 1, we tested a model that included both perceived risk and negative affect as predictors of risky choice.
