TY - JOUR PY - 2000// TI - Risk management from the psychological point of view JO - Giornale Italiano di Medicina del Lavoro ed Ergonomia A1 - Pagnin, A. SP - 38 EP - 42; discussion 62 VL - 22 IS - 1 N2 - Main directions of psychological research in risk factors and risk reducing interventions in work settings are discussed. Cognitive and social communication components that enhance or reduce risk behaviours are stressed. The author states that knowing and valuing risks are only a portion of the cognitive factors implied in the process, not sufficient to explain phenomena. With reference to current literature data, the central role of representations, of direct reinforcement procedures and of self-efficacy is affirmed.
