Three studies on the utility of jointly using explicit and implicit measures of risk were conducted. Study 1 demonstrated a cross-national validity of construct divergence between explicit and implicit measures of risk attitudes among young adults in South Korea and China. The two groups differ in implicitly assessed risk attitudes. Study 2 replicated the explicit–implicit divergence in risk attitudes in older South Korean adults, further evidencing age differences in the implicit measurement of risk attitudes. Study 3 demonstrated the predictive power of financial engineering students on the rates of return of stocks when a newly developed implicit measurement of stock investment interacted complementarily with explicitly assessed personality traits in the context of risk control.
