Domain-specific Risk-taking

Domain-Specific Risk-Taking is a psychological construct that refers to an individual's propensity to engage in risky behaviors within particular life domains—such as financial, social, health/safety, recreational, or ethical contexts—distinguished from general risk propensity by its recognition that risk attitudes and behaviors vary significantly across distinct situational domains rather than being uniform across all types of risk.
