Abstrakt: This study investigated the effect of framing on students' choices and decision making on academic concerns, which were represented by two major aspects, professors and group mates. Using One students are risk-seeking in negative framing while risk in both aspects, which is consistent with Kahneman and Tversky's prospect theory. This brings into light the decision the framing of two prospects that, if viewed objectively, present the same outcome. This study thus serves in expanding Kahneman and Tversky's literature into the academic field. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
