WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Risk Propensity Assessment Questionnaire (RSK) Test - Symptoms and Signs

risk-taking

This self-report measure is designed to assess individual differences in willingness to take risks in work and everyday contexts. The Risk Propensity Assessment Questionnaire (RSK) uses structured items to characterize typical decision-making preferences under uncertainty.

It consists of 25 items and typically requires about 5 minutes to complete. Results are intended to support a brief, standardized appraisal of risk-related attitudes and behavioral tendencies and may be considered in contexts such as personnel decision-making, team composition, and safety-related screening.

The Risk Propensity Assessment Questionnaire (RSK) should be interpreted in conjunction with relevant background information and other assessment data, particularly when used for high-stakes decisions.
