A data.frame containing responses to the risk subscale of the Domain Specific Risk Taking Scale (DOSPERT; Weber, Blais, & Betz, 2002) based on the publicly available dataset (at https://osf.io/pjt57/) by Frey, Duncan, and Weber (2020). The items measure risk-taking propensity on five different domains: social, recreational, financial, health/ safety, and ethical.
Format

- ethR_1 to ethR_6
(numeric) - Ethical-domain risk-taking items.
- finR_1 to finR_6
(numeric) - Financial-domain risk-taking items.
- heaR_1 to heaR_6
(numeric) - Health/safety-domain risk-taking items.
- recR_1 to recR_6
