We test the effects of dual processing differences in both individual traits and decision states on risk taking. In an … experiment with a large representative sample (N = 1,832), we vary whether risky choices are induced to be based on either … emotion or reason, while simultaneously measuring individual decision-making traits. Our results show that decision …

Existing theoretical and experimental studies have established that unanimity is a poor decision rule for promoting … responsibility for the committee's decision is equally distributed across all agents.
