This research studied the risk taking behavior of individual investors in the Malaysian stock market. A theoretical framework was developed to test the risk taking behavior of individual investors. There were five independent variables in the proposed model - risk preference, inertia, less risk outcome history, problem framing and problem domain familiarity. Risk propensity and risk perception were the two mediating variables in this model. Hypotheses were tested with 162 investors from eight stockbroking companies. It was found out that risk preference and inertia had significant effect on risk propensity whereas problem domain familiarity had significant effect on risk perception. 2007 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/35431/ http://eprints.usm.my/35431/1/FAZELINA_SAHUL_HAMID_%28KHK%29_%28NN24%29.pdf application/pdf en public masters Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Pengurusan (School of Management)
