- W2287201922 abstract "Understanding how people perceive and respond to risk has been of interest to social scientists and engineers. The recent low probability, high consequence disasters such as the Bhopal chemical release and the Chernobyl nuclear power plant meltdown demonstrate the technological hazards that surround us and has further increased interest in the topic. Much of today’s risk analysis is a psychometric approach that looks at individuals attitudes toward risky technologies (e.g. see the plethora of work by Fishhoff, Slovic, Lichtenstein). Although such an approach begins to answer some questions regarding human response to risk, there also exists some problems with this approach. Two problems with the psychometric approach identified here pertain to the emphasis of studying 1) individuals, and 2) attitudes. I propose that a more sociological approach, focussing on groups and behavior be undertaken to complement the psychometric approach. Furthermore, a sociological approach does not need new methodologies for understanding risk. To illustrate, brief examples from disaster research are used. Finally, psychometric risk analysis should also identify its ideological component or attempt a less value-laden approach with its research questions." @default.
