Gullone, Eleonora; Moore, Susan; Moss, Simon; Boyd, Candice
Journal of Adolescent Research, v15 n2 p231-50 Mar 2000
Examined psychometric properties of Adolescent Risk-Taking Questionnaire, using 11- to 18-year-olds. Found that the four-factor risk structure was substantiated via confirmatory factor analysis. One week test-retest and internal consistency indices were sound. Older adolescents and boys perceived less risk and reported more risky behaviors than younger adolescents and girls. Perception of higher risk levels related to lower risk taking. (Author/KB)
