Resumo: We aimed to build, to standardize and to get evidence of the validity of a card game to study the risk-taking. We investigated risk-taking outcomes by a coefficient of variation and risk-adjusted performance measure. We work with the hypothesis that the valid instrument would differ with success gender differences, pointing men more likely to be risk-taker than women. In addition to the card game, initially with eight rounds, 243 answered the sociodemographic questionnaire. Results indicated the pertinence of six rounds and presented validity evidence based on response process and on external criterion, presenting higher risk-propensity scores for males than for females. We conclude that the instrument is innovative, considering losses in the study of risk, and proved to be valid for use with Brazilian sample.Keywords: risk; psychological measure; instrument; decision-making; quantitative Research

Investigamos los resultados de inclinación al riesgo del coeficiente de variación y medida de rendimiento ajustada al riesgo. Trabajamos con la hipótesis que el instrumento válido haria la diferencia con éxito diferencias sexuales apuntando hombres como más probable ao risco do que mujeres. Además del juego, inicialmente con ocho rondas, 243 participantes respondieron un cuestionario sociodemográfico. Los resultados indican la pertinencia de seis rondas y se presentó pruebas de validez basado en el proceso de respuesta y en criterios externos, presentando puntuaciones de propensión al riesgo más altas para los hombres que para las mujeres. Se concluye que el instrumento es innovador, considerando pérdidas en el estudio de riesgo y probado ser válido para su uso con muestra brasileña.Palabras clave: riesgo; medición psicológica; instrumento; toma de decision; investigación cuantitativa.Este artigo teve como objetivos construir, padronizar e levantar evidências de validade de um jogo de cartas para o estudo da propensão ao risco. Investigamos os resultados da propensão ao risco a partir do coeficiente de variação de ganhos e medi- da de desempenho ajustado de risco. Trabalhamos com a hipótese de que o instrumento válido diferenciaria com êxito diferenças sexuais, apontando homens como mais propensos a se arriscar do que mulheres. Adicionalmente ao jogo de cartas, inicialmente com oito rodadas, 243 participantes responderam a um questionário sociodemográfico. Resultados apontaram a pertinência de seis rodadas e apresentou indicativos de evidências de validade baseada no processo de resposta e em critério externo, apresentando maiores escores de propensão ao risco para homens do que para mulheres. Concluímos que o instrumento é inovador, visto a consideração de perdas no estudo do risco e mostrou-se como válido para utilização com amostra brasileira.Palavras-chave: risco; medida psicológica; instrumento; tomada de decisão; pesquisaquantitativa.Editora Mackenzie2017-07-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAPapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/10492Journal Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 19 No. 1 (2017)Revista Psicologia: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 19 Núm. 1 (2017)Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 19 n. 1 (2017)1980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
