Description
Risk-sensitive foraging was developed to determine a forager’s choice when uncertainty or risk was involved. Past studies have focused on risky decision-making across species and contexts. Despite numerous studies over the past decade, a literature review or meta-analysis summarizing the current state of research in this area has yet to be conducted. Therefore, the purpose of the current experiment was to analyze findings from the risk-sensitive foraging literature over the past decade (i.e., 2013-2023). We found 27 studies examining risk-sensitive foraging and our aim is to present trends from the literature.
