Short presentation
My research focus mainly on risk propensity:
- To what extent are measures of an individual's risk propensity affected by cognitive abilities?
- The role of an individual's risk propensity in mental-health issues such as anxiety-disorders
- What real-life behaviors can be predicted from an individual's risk propensity?
- Which theoretical frameworks are most suitable; prospect theory vs. other frameworks?
