Abstract
In daily life, individuals with decision making deficit, don’t learn from negative feedbacks in risky situations and for this reason
they fail in social life. The Iowa Gambling Task (IGT) is a neuropsychological test that assesses decision making in daily life
through components reward, punishment and ambiguity. In this study, IGT was given to a university student population consisted
of 107 participants between ages of 20-25 and 90 participants between ages of 25-60+. The most important finding of the study is
performance differences between age groups on their IGT scores and the personality effect on IGT performances of post
adolescents.
