Opis:
Introduction: Research has shown that exercise increases levels of dopamine in cer tain sub - cortical brain regions. Increased dopamine activity in the brain has been linked to increased risk - taking. The purpose of this study was to determine if an increase in risk - taking is apparent in male athletes and non - athletes after strenuous exercise. Method: Ten athletes (age: 20.2±SD year) and ten non - athletes (age: 20.7±SD) in a university setting completed the BART (a validated protocol to asses risk - taking behavior) either after exercise or at r est. Result: Athletes obtained total 24.92 ± 10.99 pumps and Non - Athletes 42.76 ± 16.45 pumps . Discusion: AN C OVA’s showed that there was significant difference between athletes and non - athletes ( p< 0 .0 1) on the risk behavior test. Post hoc tests showed that for non - athletes there was also a significant difference for those that exercise immediately before the risk behavior test, p= 0 .003. This was not the case with athletes, p= 0 .683. Results indicate that while exercise increased risk - taking in the non - athlete subjects, it did not have an effect on the athlete population.

Opis:
Celem badań było poznanie wartości (w kategoryzacji S. Schwartza) preferowanych przez policjantów przygotowujących się do pełnienia misji pokojowej w Kosowie (KFOR - Kosovo Force) na tle innych grup społeczno-zawodowych. W badaniach wzięło udział 89 policjantów (antyterrorystów, pirotechników, detektywów z Centralnego Biura Śledczego), 58 osób, które nie podejmują, wysokiego ryzyka w swojej pracy, 50 osób podejmujących ekstremalne ryzyko sportowe (spadochroniarze) i 61 osób podejmujących ryzyko antyspołeczne (więźniowie skazani za napaść z użyciem niebezpiecznego narzędzia). Badane osoby wypełniały Kwestionariusz Wartości Schwartza. Policjanci uzyskali wyższe wyniki, w porównaniu z osobami, które nie podejmują, ryzyka w swojej pracy zawodowej, w następujących skalach wartości: Stymulacja, Hedonizm, Konformizm, Bezpieczeństwo. W porównaniu z osobami uprawiającymi sporty ekstremalne policjanci uzyskali wyższe wyniki w takich skalach wartości, jak Tradycja, Uniwersalizm, Życzliwość, Bezpieczeństwo. Wartości, które odróżniają policjantów i przestępców, to: Stymulacja, Kierowanie sobą, Tradycja, Życzliwość, Konformizm, Uniwersalizm, Bezpieczeństwo (policjanci uzyskali wyższe wyniki w porównaniu z przestępcami).
The present study aimed at identifying the preferences of values from S. Schwartz’s model, among the policemen preparing for the peacekeeping mission in Kosovo (KFOR – Kosovo Force). The sample consisted of 89 policemen preparing for the peacekeeping mission in Kosovo (for example: antiterrorists, pyrotechnicians, detectives from Central Bureau of Invetigation – Polish FBI), 58 persons not engaged in any risk activity, 50 sports extreme risk takers (parachutists) and 60 antisocial risk takers incarcerated for having committed armed robbery. The subjects were administered the Schwartz Survey Instrument. It was found that the policemen scored significantly higher on Stimulation, Hedonism, Conformity, and Security in comparison to the group which avoided risk in their jobs. The policemen obtained higher scores concerning the following values: Tradition, Universalism, Benevolence, Security, in comparison with the parachutists. The policemen also scored significantly higher on Stimulation, Self-directed, Tradition, Benevolence, Conformity, Universalism and Security in comparison to the antisocial risk takers group.

Opis:
Celem przeprowadzonych badań było poznanie stosunku do śmierci osób uprawiających ekstremalnie ryzykowne sporty. W badaniach własnych wzięło udział 83 sportowców ekstremalnych: wspinaczy wysokogórskich, spadochroniarzy, wind- i kitesurferów, nurków. Grupa kontrolna składała się ze 134 osób, które nic angażowały się w uprawianie ryzykownej aktywności. Badane osoby wypełniły Kwestionariusz Stosunku do Śmierci, który zawierał następujące wymiary: lęk przed śmiercią, preferowanie rodzaju śmierci, przekonanie o kontroli śmierci, kontemplacja śmierci, wiara w życic po śmierci i paranormalne przekonania o śmierci. Cztery wymiary stosunku do śmierci odróżniają badane grupy: preferowanie rodzaju śmierci, przekonanie o kontroli śmierci, kontemplacja śmierci i paranormalne przekonania na temat śmierci.
The objective of the study was to analyze the attitude towards death in sport extreme risk takers and the control group. The sample consisted of 83 sport extreme risk takers (mountain climbers; parachutists; wind– and kitesurfers; and divers) and 134 persons not engaging in any risky sports activity. The Attitude Towards Death Scale was administered to the subjects. The scale consisted of six dimensions: death anxiety; the preferred type of death; the belief about controlling death; contemplation of death; faith in life after death and paranormal beliefs about death. The following four variables discriminated best between the extreme risk takers and control group: the preferred type of death, the belief about controlling death, contemplation of death and paranormal beliefs about death.

The first aim of this study was to investigate Chinese drivers’ preferences to risk-taking behaviors encountered in daily life, including safety and health, finance, recreation, social areas, and ethics. The second aim was to evaluate the association between Chinese risky driving and other risk-taking behaviors. A questionnaire survey was conducted with the 324 Chinese drivers who responded. Through a principal component analysis an 8-factor structure was created to interpret different domains of risk-taking behaviors. They were risks in driving, ethics, recreation, gambling, abused health (voluntarily engaging in smoking and binge drinking), investment, ignored health (ignoring personal health, such as eating expired food), and monetary social areas. The result of multiple regression analysis showed that drivers who were likely to engage in driving risks were also likely to take risks in domains of ethics, abused health, gambling, investment, recreation, and ignored health.

Opis:
The research aims to determine how the economic and business administration faculties within the European Union member states are contributing to the development of students’ entrepreneurial skills. Therefore, a case study strategy is employed which concentrates on the most important business schools from the European Union member states; thus, 267 syllabuses from 21 higher education institutions are identified and analyzed. The results prove that European business schools manage to develop most of the required entrepreneurial skills among their students. Their graduates are both task and people oriented. On the one hand, they value performance, are capable of solving problems and taking calculated risks. On the other hand, they know how to communicate and collaborate within a team. Besides, it may be stated that the analyzed educational programs are combining the “about entrepreneurship” approach with “for entrepreneurship” perspective; they focus on developing cognitive, functional, and behavioral competences by combining lectures with active learning techniques. These actions are influenced by cultural specificity and have an impact on a country’s capacity to be a top performer, in terms of entrepreneurship development. These findings have both theoretical and practical implications. On a theoretical level, they extend the literature regarding the development of entrepreneurial skills by providing concrete information about the skills on which the academic curricula focus. On a practical level, they provide valuable insights regarding the skills that the future entrepreneurs will have; these will influence their behavior in a business environment no matter whether they will choose to be the owner of a business or an enterprising employee.

Opis:
Research background: Risk-taking is the basis for sustainable development of enterprise. It was clear that the influence COVID-19 epidemic on the global market economy has increased operational risks for businesses. The semiconductor industry has high operating risks and financial risks. Moderate financial flexibility (FF) can improve the ability of semiconductor enterprises to acquire financial resources in real time, calmly cope with the impact of uncertainties in operation, improve investment opportunities, and enhance sustainable operation. It is therefore interesting to study the influence of FF on enterprise risk-taking (ERT). Purpose of the article: The aim of the contribution is to explore the effect of FF on ERT within Taiwan's semiconductor industry amid the COVID-19 pandemic period, and investigate whether ERT varies with semiconductor industry characteristic. Methods: Data from first three quarters of 2020, from multinational semiconductor firms listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TSE), were collected and analyzed. Fixed effects regression with heteroscedasticity adjustment used to evaluate the influence of FF on the ERT of Taiwan's semiconductor industry. Furthermore, in order to corroborate and support the reliability of the results, this research also used the different measures of ERT and Quantile regression (median regression) in the research model to check the robustness. Findings & value added: Empirical results indicate that FF has a U-shaped effect on ERT for multinational semiconductor firms listed on the TSE, particularly within the integrated circuits (IC) manufacturing industry. Additionally, FF also has a U-shaped effect on ERT for the asset-light semiconductor and IC manufacturing industries. This article also suggests that for the asset-light semiconductor and IC manufacturing industries, the optimal inflection points are 1.1397 and 0.9729, respectively. Based on the consequences of this study, it is suggested that Taiwan?s semiconductor industry should reasonably maintain FF and focus on the liquidity risk management for the long term value added, even after the COVID-19 pandemic period.

Opis:
Research background: Corporate risk-taking (CRT) is crucial to a business's survival and performance and is a driving force for sustainable development. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices are critical to firm profits when considering sustainable economic growth; however, they can also be the cause of financial burdens. It is, therefore, crucial to assess the relationship between a company's ESG performance and its risk-taking. Purpose of the article: Considering the controversial results of empirical studies on the relationship between ESG and CRT, this study aims to theoretically and empirically investigate the curvilinear nexus between ESG practices and CRT within Taiwan's high-tech industry. Methods: Ordinary least square regression and quantile regression analysis was applied to investigate the curvilinear ESG-CRT relationship. The empirical studies were conducted in 38 high-tech companies on the Taiwan Stock Exchange that disclosed ESG information between 2005 and 2020, with a total of 437 firm-year observations. Findings & value added: Quantile regression estimation results reveal the ESG-CRT nexus is U-shaped (convex). Both the environmental and social pillar's relationship with CRT is nonlinear and U-shaped, whereas the governance pillar has no significant relationship with CRT. Overall, a comprehensive view is provided that shows ESG practices can have a double-edged sword effect on CRT. It is suggested that high-tech companies in Taiwan should avoid ESG practices becoming a tool for managements' self-interest. More information of ESG practices should be disclosed to stakeholders to ensure they are given full credit for the positive impact they have on capital allocation. Regulators guide firms to surpass the threshold of the U-shaped effect and take into consideration the whole benefits of stakeholders when they allocate existing resources toward environmental and social endeavors.

Opis:
The experience of good fortune and misfortune often reveals itself in the context of risk. We posed the question of whether there are differences between the lucky and the unlucky in perceiving and undertaking risky behaviours, and if these differences constitute predictors of good or ill fortune. A range of instruments were applied in the research to examine groups of lucky and unlucky individuals in respect of their propensity for taking risk, attitudes towards the risk occurring in various domains, the functions of risky behaviours and manner of taking risky decisions depending on the adopted perspective. The research results indicate a number of differences between the differentiated groups. It occurred that the lucky have a greater tendency than the unlucky to take risks, especially in the social and financial (investment) domains; they prefer instrumental risk; and they are more flexible in applying perspectives for potential outcomes when making risky decisions. We conclude that the results received can be interpreted in the context of predictors of good and bad luck.

Opis:
During adolescence, related to the crisis of identity, attempts to separate from the family and rebellion against the reality result in the youth to be particularly susceptible to the impact of peers. Identification with the group is most often based on common interests, one of which being music. The aim of the pilot study was to assess the relationship of autodestructive and  antisocial behaviour and  music preferences of  girls subject to  inpatient stay due to  mental problems. Material and methods: Own questionnaire was used concerning music preferences, consisting of the following genres: metal, rock, pop, jazz, hip-hop, reggae, film music, sung poetry, electronic music. The studied group comprised of 26 girls diagnosed with mood disorders, neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders, eating disorders and behavioural and emotional disorders according to ICD-10. Exclusion criteria were the remaining diagnostic categories, especially active psychotic process and mental retardation as well as lack of understanding of the questionnaire questions or not being familiar with basic types of music. Among the patients aged 13–18 subject to inpatient stay at the Department of Adolescent Psychiatry in Łódź in the period 2013–2014 and consented to the study, the incidence of attempted suicide, inflicting self-harm, alcohol abuse, taking psychoactive substances and the presence of antisocial disorders were assessed. Questionnaire verification was carried out in a group of 30 people tested with a test–retest method with a two-week break; reliability was obtained: 0.89–1. Analysis was carried out with the use of Statistica 9.1 programme. Results: Among the teenage girls subject to inpatient stay, music preferences were not related in a statistically significant manner (p > 0.05) with a greater incidence of attempted suicide, inflicting self-harm, alcohol abuse and contact with psychoactive substances, nor the psychiatric diagnosis. Conclusions: Girls subject to inpatient stay at the mental ward most often preferred hip-hop. No significant relationship of the preference over a particular music genre and the number of autodestructive and risky behaviour was observed; only tendencies for more frequent selection of particular genres of music were visible.
W okresie dojrzewania, związanym z kryzysem tożsamości, próby separacji od rodziny i bunt przeciwko zastanej rzeczywistości powodują, że młodzież jest szczególnie podatna na wpływy grupy rówieśniczej. Identyfikacja z grupą bazuje najczęściej na wspólnych zainteresowaniach, a jednym z nich jest muzyka. Celem badania wstępnego była ocena związku zachowań autodestrukcyjnych i aspołecznych z preferencjami muzycznymi dziewcząt hospitalizowanych psychiatrycznie. Materiał i metody: Wykorzystano autorską ankietę dotyczącą preferencji muzycznych, która obejmowała następujące podstawowe gatunki: metal, rock, pop, jazz, hip-hop, reggae, blues, muzyka filmowa, poezja śpiewana, muzyka elektroniczna. Grupę badaną stanowiło 26 dziewcząt z diagnozą zaburzeń nastroju, zaburzeń nerwicowych, związanych ze stresem i pod postacią somatyczną, zaburzeń odżywiania oraz zaburzeń zachowania i emocji według ICD-10. Kryteriami wykluczenia były pozostałe kategorie diagnostyczne, a zwłaszcza aktywny proces psychotyczny i upośledzenie umysłowe, jak również brak rozumienia pytań zawartych w kwestionariuszu lub nieznajomość podstawowych gatunków muzycznych. U 13–18-letnich pacjentek, które były hospitalizowane w Klinice Psychiatrii Młodzieżowej w Łodzi w latach 2013–2014 i wyraziły zgodę na  badanie, oceniano występowanie prób samobójczych, dokonywanie samouszkodzeń, nadużywanie alkoholu, przyjmowanie substancji psychoaktywnych i obecność zaburzeń aspołecznych. Weryfikację kwestionariusza przeprowadzono w grupie 30 osób, które badano metodą test–retest w odstępie dwutygodniowym; uzyskano rzetelność 0,89–1. Analizę przeprowadzono za pomocą programu Statistica 9.1. Wyniki: Wśród hospitalizowanych nastolatek preferencje muzyczne nie wiązały się w sposób istotny statystycznie (p > 0,05) z większą częstością prób samobójczych, samouszkodzeń, nadużywania alkoholu i kontaktu z substancjami psychoaktywnymi ani z diagnozą psychiatryczną. Wnioski: Dziewczęta hospitalizowane psychiatrycznie najczęściej preferowały muzykę hip-hopową. Nie zaobserwowano istotnego związku między preferowaniem konkretnego gatunku muzycznego a większą liczbą zachowań autodestrukcyjnych i ryzykownych; widoczne były jedynie tendencje do częstszego wyboru określonych gatunków muzyki.

This study examines whether the lowering interest-rate environment in CEE countries since the early 2000’s increased bank risk-taking behaviour. We employ 6,979 annual observations from the Bankscope database over the period 1997-2011 and find a positive relationship between bank risk-taking, measured by risk assets, and interest rates. On the contrary, there is a negative relationship between non-performing loans and interest rates. These results are robust across a number of different specifications that account, inter alia, for the potential endogeneity of interest rates and/or the dynamics of bank risk. Moreover, we provide evidence that these findings are mainly driven by the banking sector of the Russian Federation rather than that of the rest CEE countries.

Opis:
The sociological study of risk-taking behavior is a relatively recent development. Lyng (1990) and others have developed the field of edgework, or the “sociology of risk-taking.” In this study, we examine a group of edgeworkers to understand the role of fun and identity in a group of BMX “freestyle” bicycle riders and conclude that these riders reject rational reasons, in the sense of the term envisioned by Weber, for riding in favor of choosing an activity that they report as fun, which leads to feelings such as self-actualization and fulfillment. Additionally, they are not concerned that others, outside of the subculture, recognize their status as participants, further suggesting that rationality played little into the calculation used to define success by this group.

Opis:
The study aims to compare the decision-making processes of individuals with and without the Covid-19 vaccine under uncertainty. The study included 70 participants vaccinated against Covid-19 and 70 not-vaccinated against Covid-19, matched by age, gender, and education level. Sociodemographic Data Form, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Barratt Impulsivity Scale Short Form (BIS-11-SF), The Scale of Vaccine Hesitancy (SVH), and Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) were administered to the participants. A statistically significant difference was found between the vaccinated and non-vaccinated groups regarding SVH sub-dimensions and the total score (p<0.001). A statistically significant difference was observed between the groups in the IGT-5 sub- dimension (p <0.05). Although there was no statistically significant difference in IGT-total and other sub-dimensions, it was recognized that not-vaccinated participants made more choices for risky decks. A statistically significant negative correlation was found between IGT-5 and the benefit and protective value of the vaccine, solutions for non-vaccination, and SVH-total score. Besides, there was a statistically significant negative correlation between the IGT-Total score and the sub-dimension of solutions for non-vaccination. The non-vaccinated group made more choices from the disadvantageous and risky decks in the long run during the decision-making task under uncertainty; they were prone to take more risks. That is why the impact of implicit and emotional processes should be considered in the risk assessment against vaccine hesitancy.

Opis:
Risk-taking and competitive aggressiveness, substantial elements of the entrepreneurial orientation of SMEs, have a significant impact on the management of SMEs. The aim of this contribution is to define the importance of these elements and to quantify the differences between entrepreneurs in terms of entrepreneur’s gender and education, and company’s age and size. Our research conducted in 2015 in the Czech Republic revealed some significant specifics within the relationships among gender, risk and competitive aggressiveness in the field of SMEs. Statistically significant differences between the designated social groups were compared through Pearson statistics at the significance level of 5%. According to our results since male and higher educated managers more intensively incline to initiative, to the realization of riskier projects and to aggressiveness against competitors, management of the entrepreneurially oriented companies should include these type of team members in order to formulate riskier and more competitively aggressive strategies. Companies which operate on the market for more than 10 years have a positive attitude and the “need” of risk and aggressive behaviour towards its competitors.
Podejmowanie ryzyka i agresywna konkurencja, stanowią bardzo istotne elementy działalności małych i średnich przedsiębiorstw, mające znaczący wpływ na ich zarządzanie. Celem tego artykułu jest podjęcie próby określenia znaczenia tych elementów oraz wyznaczenie różnic między przedsiębiorcami w zakresie płci przedsiębiorcy, w Czechach. Badanie wykazało istotne różnice w ramach relacji pomiędzy płcią, ryzykiem i agresywną konkurencją w obszarze MŚP. Statystycznie istotne różnice między wyznaczonymi grupami społecznymi zostały porównane przy wykorzystaniu współczynnika korelacji Pearsona na poziomie istotności 5%. Wyniki badań w sposób jednoznaczny pokazują, ze istnieje potrzeba stosowania ryzykownych i agresywnych strategii wobec firm konkurencyjnych.
