传统上,对成瘾行为的研究一直是基于对其危险因素的研究,冲动是主要的危险因素。然而,本研究旨在从决策分析中探讨这一主题。根据前景理论,低水平的损失和风险厌恶会增加成瘾行为的可能性。对这些行为与前景理论之间的可能关系进行了系统回顾。为此,汇编了迄今为止研究成瘾行为人群(N=15)的损失和风险厌恶的著作。除了其他资格标准,选择过程只进行了包括前景理论或累积前景理论的研究,英语或西班牙语,自1979年。WOS,Scopus,Dialnet和PsycInfo是选择的信息源。为此,已遵循PRISMA准则。研究发现,成瘾性物质的使用者比非使用者表现出更少的损失厌恶。这些结果不能转移给病态赌徒。强调了这项工作对未来研究以及预防和干预计划实施的意义。结果显示了一种从新的角度解决成瘾的方法。
Traditionally, research on addictive behaviors has been based on the study of their risk factors, with impulsivity being the main risk factor. However, this study aims to approach this topic from the analysis of decision making. According to the prospect theory, low levels of loss and risk aversion will increase the probability of showing addictive behaviors. A systematic
review of the possible relationships between these behaviors and prospect theory was carried out. To this end, the works that have studied loss and risk aversion in populations with addictive behaviors to date (N = 15) were compiled. Apart from other eligibility criteria, the selection process was only performed with studies that included the prospect theory or cumulative prospect theory, in English or Spanish, since 1979. WoS, Scopus, Dialnet and PsycInfo were the information sources selected. For this purpose, PRISMA guidelines have been followed. It was found that users of addictive substances show less loss aversion than nonusers. These results cannot be transferred to pathological gamblers. The significance of this work for future research and the implementation of prevention and intervention programs is highlighted. The results show an approach to addictions from a novel perspective.
