本研究以51名市中心高中生为样本，探讨了风险行为倾向的行为测量在评估自我报告的现实世界风险行为中的效用。结果表明，在一个行为指标上的表现，气球模拟风险任务，解释了自我报告的违法/安全风险行为以及物质使用风险行为的独特差异，超过了人口统计学和风险相关结构的自我报告指标（即，冲动和感觉寻求）。这些结果进行了讨论的潜在效用，使用多方法评估方法，更好地了解青少年的风险承担脆弱性。(C)2004爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
The current study examined the utility of behavioral measures of risk-taking propensity in the assessment of self-reported real-world risk-taking behaviors using a sample of 51 high-school-aged inner-city adolescents. Results indicated that performance on one behavioral measure, the balloon analogue risk task, accounted for unique variance in self-reported delinquency/safety risk behaviors as well as substance use risk behaviors, above and beyond that provided with demographics and self-report measures of risk-related constructs (i.e., impulsivity and sensation seeking). These results are discussed in relation to the potential utility of using a multimethod assessment approach for better understanding risk-taking vulnerability among adolescents.
