What is Overview of Risk Homeostasis Theory about?
The document discusses risk homeostasis theory, which proposes that people have a target level of risk acceptance and will adjust their behavior to keep their perceived level of risk close to this target. Changes that initially reduce accident rates by increasing perceived risk are often followed by people adjusting their behavior to increase risk taking again. The theory helps explain why safety measures like seatbelts and airbags do not reduce total accident rates.
