The central element of our research is to explore the close relationship between financial decision making and emotions and psychological factors. In the field of modern finance, in addition to the model of rational decision making, the role of emotions and cognitive biases, which often change investor behavior, is receiving increasing attention. The aim of our research was to shed light on these factors, with a particular focus on self-confidence, emotional intelligence, and risk-taking propensity, and to examine how they influence investors’ decisions.
