摘要
Psychological study of cross-cultural differences in risk responses can be undermined by failure to take account of the challenges of such research. Investigators who see any differences found across populations as cultural, use other disciplines’ theoretical models or culture-specific psychometric scales without realizing their limits, and uncritically accept standard categories of risks and risk responses may reduce the potential of this conjunction of culture, risk, and psychology. © 1991, Sage Publications.
