Research Abstract |
Research shows an inconsistent result of time-related decision-making. Perceived time is vulnerable to external factors and prone to affect a decision-maker' frame of thought. Although Western research questions the robustness of Prospect theory's reflection effect, Japanese respondents showed risk-averse in loss domain when they do not remember deadlines as time constraint. Quantitative text analysis confirms Japanese uncertainty avoidance.
