成年和青少年SS被要求列出接受或拒绝参与各种潜在危险行为(例如，酒后驾车、逃学去商场)的机会可能产生的后果。这些成年人和青少年的反应模式非常相似，表明他们对可能性有共同的信念。尽管承担和避免风险在逻辑上是互补的行为，但事实证明它们在心理上并不互补。其他比较显示，同一行为的一次性和常规(或重复)版本以及开放式和封闭式反应模式产生的后果存在系统性差异。本文从研究风险认知的方法论意义、影响青少年风险行为的实践意义以及理解智力发展的理论意义三个方面对这些结果进行了讨论。
Adult and adolescent Ss were asked to list possible consequences of either accepting or declining opportunities to engage in various potentially risky behaviors (e.g., drinking and driving, skipping school to go to a mall). Response patterns were quite similar for these adults and adolescents, indicating shared beliefs about the possibilities. Although taking and avoiding a risk are logically complementary actions, they did not prove to be psychologically complementary. Other comparisons showed systematic differences in the consequences produced for one-time and regular (or repeated) versions of the same behaviors, as well as for open-ended and closed-ended response modes. These results are discussed in terms of their methodological implications for studying risk perceptions, their practical implications for influencing adolescents' risk behaviors, and their theoretical implications for understanding intellectual development.
