DOSPERT R Documentation
DOSPERT
Description
A list containing the bivariate correlations (cormat) of the 40 items of
the Domain Specific Risk Taking Scale (DOSPERT; Weber, Blais, & Betz, 2002)
and the sample size (N) based on the publicly available dataset at
(https://osf.io/rce7g) of the Basel-Berlin Risk Study (Frey et al., 2017).
The items measure risk-taking propensity on six different domains: social,
recreational, gambling, health/ safety, investment, and ethical.
Usage
DOSPERT
Format
A list of 2 with elements "cormat" (40 x 40 matrix of bivariate
correlations) and "N" (scalar).
- cormat
(matrix) - Bivariate correlations of the 40 DOSPERT items,
which span the six risk domains (social, recreational, gambling,
health/safety, investment, and ethical).
- N
(numeric) - The sample size the correlations are based on.
