“…O risco percebido pode também ser considerado como uma característica das decisões nas quais exista a incerteza sobre as conseqüências significantes que possam acontecer (SITKIN e PABLO, 1992). ENGEL et al (1995), por sua vez, consideram que o risco vai além da incerteza sobre as conseqüências, sendo uma expectativa pessoal de que uma perda possa ocorrer.…”

“…Apesar de observarem que o termo risco é tipicamente aplicado a resultados negativos, alguns pesquisadores, como SITKIN e PABLO (1992), afirmam que o risco inclui todo o espectro de resultados: tanto positivos quanto negativos. Isto se deve ao fato de que não é o resultado esperado em si que constitui o risco, mas o quanto este resultado pode ser considerado frustrante.…”

O objetivo desse artigo foi identificar dimensões de riscos percebidos na compra on-line por usuários da Internet que já compraram e pelos que nunca adquiriram produtos por este meio. O trabalho é resultado de um survey junto a uma amostra de 200 internautas. Destes, 111 participaram do grupo dos que nunca compraram pela rede e 89 dos que já compraram. O uso de estatísticas multivariadas destacou os riscos de proteção da informação, futura oportunidade perdida e dano físico das mercadorias adquiridas para os usuários que já compraram pela Internet e, para os que nunca compraram, acrescentam-se a esses os riscos de perda da socialização e satisfação. Os usuários que nunca compraram pela rede perceberam mais dimensões de risco e em um maior grau do que os que já utilizaram a Internet como um meio de compras.

“…In this context, Lucarelli and Brighetti (2011) clarified that these two components of risk tolerance are substantially different where risk attitude is a psychological attribute while risk capacity is a financial attribute. Sitkin and Pablo (1992) suggested that risk tolerance characterized by risk preference, risk perception and risk propensity. They distinguished among the three features of risk tolerance by defining risk preference as a personality trait of being attracted to risk, whereas risk perception as an individual's assessment of a situation-specific risk, and risk propensity as the objective likelihood of an individual taking or avoiding risk.…”

Financial risk tolerance is certainly an important topic for researchers, investors and personal financial planners or consultants. This study purposed to investigate the effect of demographic characteristics on financial risk tolerance among Egyptians. A literature review of demographic determinants of financial risk tolerance showed dialectical results. Therefore, this study attempts to clarify the debatable issues in these results by studying the moderating role of financial literacy in relationships among demographic characteristics and financial risk tolerance. The study sample included 386 respondents representing different segments of Egyptian people. Using the hierarchical regression analysis, the results demonstrated that there were significant effects of gender, age, educational level and annual income on financial risk tolerance. Moreover, the financial literacy moderates the relationships among demographic characteristics of individuals and their tendency to take a risk.

“…The trustor permits his or her fate to be determined by the trustee and risks that he or she will experience negative outcomes, e.g. injury or loss, if the trustee proves untrustworthy (Sitkin and Pablo, 1992;Currall and Inkpen, 2006;Li, 2007).…”

At the crossroads: Future directions in trust research

This forum paper is intended to stimulate a debate on a fundamental conceptual issue in trust research. It argues that the dominant stream of literature focuses too much on the micro level of trust building processes and hence promotes a reductionist understanding of the phenomenon. In future trust research, it is suggested to place considerably more emphasis on the 'constitutive' embeddedness of actors' behaviour in the institutional environment.The latter is shown to be conducive to overcoming the limitations of current mainstream trust research and to developing new insights into the role and functioning of trust in modern business systems.
