Título: Are received risk reception models alive and well? / Lennart SjöbergAutor: Sjöberg, Lennart
Notas: Two recent on risk perception models are discussed. In this article are presented of risk perception in relation to risk characteristics as specified in the Psychometric Model, and to cultural biases according to Cultural Theory. This comment points out that the data quality of these two studies is doubtful, with a very small convenience sample and very low response rate. More importantly, the analyses show the same low levels of explained variance of risk perception as other researchers have found previously, but the author still draw optimistic conclusions from their data. Such conclusions are justifiedRegistros relacionados: En: Risk analysis : an international journal. - New York and London : Society for Risk Analysis. - Vol. 22, nº 4, August, 2002 ; p. 665-669Materia / lugar / evento: Percepción del riesgo Análisis de riesgos Percepción Prevención de riesgos Evaluación de riesgos Gerencia de riesgos Modelos predictivos Casos prácticos Otras clasificaciones: 7
