Abstract
Risk-taking in adults fluctuates across domains, as documented by the Domain Specific Risk-Taking (DOSPERT) scale. In this study, we aim to establish a version of the DOSPERT scale for adolescents to understand risk behavior as well as elicit judgments of perceived riskiness and expected benefits of the risky behaviors.
