Can risk-taking propensity be thought of as a trait that captures individual differences across domains, measures, and time? Studying stability in risk-taking propensities across the lifespan can help to answer such questions by uncovering parallel, or divergent, trajectories across domains and...

Empirical results suggest that individual and age-related differences in risk taking may be task dependent. Such results call into question the power of traditional measures of risk preferences, such as the choice between monetary gambles with described outcomes and probabilities, to fully and...
