The notion of risk aversion provides an important starting point for mainstream theories relating to portfolio management and insurance purchasing. The current study uses prospect theory as a starting point for examining the role of personality effects, specifically risk propensity, in decision making. This personality construct emerges as an influencing factor on decisions when individuals are faced with potential gains. Conversely, the expectation of potential losses in a decision-making scenario reduces the influence of risk propensity in decision making. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
