摘要
The Domain-specific Risk-taking scale was designed to assess risk taking in specific domains. This approach is unconventional in personality assessment but reflects conventional wisdom in the decision community that cross-situational consistency in risk taking is more myth than reality. We applied bifactor analysis to a large sample (n = 921) of responses to the Domain-specific Risk Taking. Results showed that, in addition to domain-specific facets, there does appear to be evidence for a general risk-taking disposition. And this general appetite for risk appears to be useful for predicting real-world outcomes. Copyright (C) 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
