Quality Control and Due Diligence in Project Management: Getting Decisions Right by Taking the Outside View (2013, background): “The existing literature on quality control, due diligence, and risk assessment in project management does not cover this particular approach to improved decision making (Breakwell, 2007; De Meyer et al., 2002; Fischoff, 2002; Perminova et al., 2008; Winch, 2010).”
The Risk Perception Paradox—Implications for Governance and Communication of Natural Hazards (2013, background): “Most people reconfirm existing attitudes when reading or viewing media reports.(63,64,65) Another issue to consider is the fading character of disaster experience.”
News framing effects on destination risk perception (2016, background): “…signals and/or information about potentially harmful events or activities, and the formation of a judgement about seriousness, likelihood and acceptability of the respective event or activity’ (Slovic, Fischhoff, & Lichtenstein, 1982 cited by Grobe et al. 2008, p. 16; Brehmer, 1987; Renn, 2004).”
A critical review on supply chain risk – Definition, measure and modeling ☆ (2015, background): “In recent decades, we have observed this term being applied to areas such as decision theory [75,119], finance [63,64,92], actuarial science [82], health care [53,77], marketing [34,120], management [90], emergency planning [33,57,60] and psychology [2,20,38].”
Bringing appraisal theory to environmental risk perception: a review of conceptual approaches of the past 40 years and suggestions for future research (2012, background): “…interesting approaches that have not initiated a clear line of empirical research in the field of environmental risk perception, such as the social representation theory (Joffe 2003), are not presented either; for a detailed overview of these approaches, see, for example, Breakwell (2007).”
Place attachment and natural hazard risk: Research review and agenda (2016, background): “Risk is the “probability of a particular adverse event occurring during a stated period of time” (Breakwell, 2007, p. 2).”
Collective guilt mediates the effect of beliefs about global warming on willingness to engage in mitigation behavior (2010, background): “For instance, Breakwell (2007) has suggested that risk communications regarding ‘‘man-made’’ hazards stimulate greater anxiety, presumably because of their perceived destructive potential relative to ‘‘natural’’ hazards.”
