The latter involves decisions under ambiguity, decisions under risk, decisions after gaining experience and decisions …We assess the ability of different risk profiling measures to predict risk taking along a multi-stage decision process … after receiving outcome information on previous decisions. We find that in all decisions risk taking can be predicted by …
