Abstract

This paper aims at investigating whether the individual attitude towards risk is a predicator of the movie piracy behavior. This issue is of interest as public policy against digital piracy, such as the Graduated Response of the Hadopi law in France, aims at making piracy risky. In this paper, the attitude towards risk of French students, elicited using an experimental measure, are linked to survey data on digital piracy of movies. Our results indicate that attitude towards risk of the sample of students does not predict their online movie piracy behavior. This result is in line with previous studies showing the low efficiency of public policy against digital piracy.
