Abstract

Uncertainty appears in many different life situations and people find it difficult to manage it. This experimental research study presents some behavioural results of diverse actions in risk situations. Risk is involved in any framework in which one works and that is why this study focused on testing people to observe their acts in different situations. The difficulty of predicting random success is studied by the experimental method, allowing control of the conditions under which decisions are made. This paper primarily focuses on the factors that influence peoples attitudes to risk and their individual behaviour according to the amount of risk involved.
