It is show that subjection preference the H bet in the choice task when under the H-S partnership, but they also make high price on the S bet in he making price task. The subjects like to seek risk under the high profit and loss value, either the low profit and loss value. The subjection preference always make a high price on the S bet either under the H-S partnership or under the H-L partnership , S-L partnership, representing obvious risk-seeking. There is no previous difference between the high profit and loss value and the low profit and loss value. In a word, the tendency to make high price on the S bet in the making price task is more stabilization than the tendency to choice the H bet in the choice task.The purpose of the second part of this experiment is to adverse the influence of emotion on the preference reversal phenomenon. It is show that the subjective express risk-seeking under the H-S partnership and H-L partnership when they have positive emotion than they have negative emotion, but express risk-obviating under the S-L partnership.
