Document Summary
Teens exaggerate likelihood of risky outcomes, but weigh possible outcomes more heavily than risks when making decisions. They know that there are risks but they care more about rewards: risk preference and risk decision making study, used, adolescents, youth, adults. They played it by themselves or two participants in the same age bracket: game: the more you press go, the more points you get. If you press stop, you bank all the points but you have to press stop before the brick wall comes down or you lose all. As a result, there is a longer period of adolescence. So we would need to do another study for males: us reading and writing gaps, girls due better at reading and writing overall. The gap between the male and the female scores increase: boys do better on math achievement. However, as gender equality increases from different countries, the difference between girls and boys decrease.
