Misconceptions of Risk; Contents; Preface; Acknowledgements; 1 Risk is equal to the expected value; 2 Risk is a probability or probability distribution; 3 Risk equals a probability distribution quantile (value-at-risk); 4 Risk equals uncertainty; 5 Risk is equal to an event; 6 Risk equals expected disutility; 7 Risk is restricted to the case of objective probabilities; 8 Risk is the same as risk perception; 9 Risk relates to negative consequences only; 10 Risk is determined by the historical data; 11 Risk assessments produce an objective risk picture
12 There are large inherent uncertainties in risk analyses13 Model uncertainty should be quantified; 14 It is meaningful and useful to distinguish between stochastic and epistemic uncertainties; 15 Bayesian analysis is based on the use of probability models and bayesian updating; 16 Sensitivity analysis is a type of uncertainty analysis; 17 The main objective of risk management is risk reduction; 18 Decision-making under uncertainty should be based on science (analysis); 19 The precautionary principle and risk management cannot be meaningfully integrated; 20 Conclusions; Index |
