deficient due to the inadequate substantiation of the theory. Furthermore, academic research to corroborate existing theories relevant to risk management or information security is underway, but current research may not be supportive of existing theories. According to Chuy et al. (2010), the roles of theories may not be fully understood and arguably used by others in the research process. In this article, a discussion will be presented on several theories regarding information security and risk management
The gambler’s fallacy is defined as an (incorrect) belief in negative autocorrelation of a non-autocorrelated random sequence.1 For example, individuals who believe in the gambler’s fallacy believe that after three red numbers appearing on the roulette wheel, a black number is “due,” that is, is more likely to appear than a red number ( SUNDALI & CROSON, 2006).
