En este articulo se determinó la relación entre la Percepción del riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular con el Nivel de uso de Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC´s), así como el efecto explicativo del nivel de uso de las TIC´s y antecedentes para enfermedad cardiovascular en la Percepción del riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular en adultos con obesidad. Este estudio es pertinente dado que la relación entre las variables propuestas, así como la relación de las TIC´s y otras variables sobre la percepción de riesgo de enfermedad cardiaca y cerebral aún no es del todo clara. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo-analítico realizado en una muestra de 260 adultos con obesidad. Se usaron los cuestionarios Percepción del Riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular y Uso de TICS en pacientes atendidos en un centro de salud, se respetaron las normas éticas y se utilizó estadística descriptiva e inferencial. Se encontró relación entre la Percepción del riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular y el uso de las TIC´s (rs =0,142, p=0,022). El Nivel de uso de TICS y antecedentes personales/familiares para el desarrollo de enfermedad cardiovascular fue un 14,3% en la percepción del riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular. Se concluyó que la percepción del riesgo de enfermedad cardiovascular se relaciona con el Nivel de uso de Tecnologías de la información y comunicación en salud y es explicada en parte por el Nivel de uso de tecnologías de la información y comunicación y antecedentes de salud. Objective: This paper determined the relationship between the perception of risk of a cardiovascular disease with the level of use of Information and Communication Technology or ICT, as well as the explanatory effect of these ICTs and the history of cardiovascular disease in the perception of risk of cardiovascular disease in adults with obesity.Methods: This study is relevant since the relationship between the proposed variables, and the relationship of the ICTs and other variables about the risk perception of heart and brain disease is not very clear yet. An analytical-descriptive research was made on a sample of 260 obese adults. Questionnaires of risk perception of a cardiovascular disease and use of ICT in patients who receive care in a health center were used; ethical standards were observed and descriptive statistics and statistical inference were applied.Results: A relationship between risk perception of a cardiovascular disease and the use of ICTs was found (rs=0,142, p=0,022). The level of use of ICTs and personal/family history of disease for the development of a cardiovascular disease explain a 14,3% in the perception of risk of the disease.Conclusions: It was concluded that the perception of risk of cardiovascular disease was related to the level of use of Information and Communication Technologies regarding health, and it is partially explained by the level of use of the ICTs and health history.

The purpose of this article is to investigate the relationship of overconfidence and illusion of control towards the start of new venture, taking in consideration the mediating role of risk perception in the context of Tunisia. This article examines students' responses to surveys based on a teaching case titled “Optical Distortion, Inc.” The authors tested hypotheses by correlation and regression analysis. The results show that the perception towards risk associated with new venture plays an important role in decision-making. Moreover, they find that overconfidence and illusion of control reduce risk perception associated to the decision to start a venture. While overconfidence directly affects the decision to start a venture and indirectly through its effect on reducing the risk perception, illusion of control has neither a direct nor an indirect impact on that. These results partially confirm those of Simon show that the mediation exists but partially.

The Relationship

This study investigated the relationship of self-efficacy, outcome expectancies, and risk perception on intention to increase physical activity in a group of adolescents. The 833 participants ( M age = 16.2 yr., SD =1.5) completed a Survey of Health Behavior anonymously. 88% of the sample said that they engaged in physical activity; 42.1% said that they spent 4 hours per week exercising. Boys appeared to be more active than girls. The results indicated self-efficacy, outcome expectancies, and risk perception as key factors in explaining behavioural intention in teenagers. As regards outcome expectancies, it seems that adolescents are effectively motivated by objectives which affect them closely, such as maintaining the right weight, and which may influence their everyday life.

Hence by, the results revealed that individuals who are activity, determined, and sympathy towards others are more willing to opt for STFO (short term financing objectives). Whilst, in long run extraversion, openness to experience and agreeableness, and conscientiousness traits are more inclined towards LTFO (long term financing objectives).

Entrepreneurship education for college students increasingly attracts extensive attention of both government and universities in China. However, few studies focus on the effectiveness of this external “input” learning for Chinese college students, and whether entrepreneurship education can be expected to increase college students' intention of starting a business. Based on cognitive perspective, the authors collected 327 valid questionnaires from college students in China to explore the impact mechanism of entrepreneurship education on entrepreneurial intention. Results shows that entrepreneurship education has a positive effect on risk perception capability and entrepreneurial intention. Risk perception capability positively affects entrepreneurial intention and plays an intermediary role in the relationship of entrepreneurship education and entrepreneurial intention. Then the authors put forward suggestions and strategies for the implementation and popularization of entrepreneurship education for domestic universities in China.
