Special Forces commandos rely on psychology as much as force. As one sergeant put it: "Other special ops guys go in and kill all the snakes. We go in, kill two snakes, then recruit two more to convert or kill the rest". (Linda Robinson, "The men in the shadows - Why special forces are providing the model for a new kind of war", in www.usnews.com, May 19th, 2003). 2, record 13, English, - special%20operations

Activités militaires menées par des forces spécialement désignées, organisées, entraînées et équipées, utilisant des techniques opérationnelles et des modes d'action inhabituels aux forces conventionnelles. Ces activités sont menées dans toute la gamme des opérations militaires, indépendamment des opérations de forces conventionnelles, ou en coordination avec celles-ci, pour atteindre des objectifs politiques, militaires, psychologiques et économiques. Des considérations politico-militaires peuvent nécessiter le recours à des techniques clandestines ou discrètes et l'acceptation d'un niveau de risque physique et politique non compatible avec les opérations conventionnelles. 1, record 13, French, - op%C3%A9rations%20sp%C3%A9ciales

Wilde's theory is based on a cost-benefit model. He studied how people modify their hazard perception when safety systems are implemented. This process... states that people adjust their risk acceptance decision and their risk-taking behaviour towards their target level of perceived risk. Stating that people will behave more cautiously and accept fewer risks when they feel threatened, conversely, they will behave more daringly and accept higher levels of risk when they feel safe and secure. 1, record 14, English, - risk%20homeostatic%20theory

Dans le domaine de la sécurité routière, Wilde développe la théorie du risque homéostatique. Le sujet adapte son comportement en fonction de son niveau de risque préférentiel ou cible, c'est-à-dire le niveau de risque que le sujet pense pouvoir prendre. C'est une manière de considérer la sécurité comme un objet progressif. En effet, il ne suffit pas de rectifier des virages ou de réaménager un carrefour pour que le bilan soit positif. Un certain facteur de sécurité supplémentaire dans un domaine peut se révéler néfaste dans un autre domaine. Il faut plutôt travailler sur le niveau du risque cible. 1, record 14, French, - th%C3%A9orie%20du%20risque%20hom%C3%A9ostatique

D'une manière générale, selon M. Wilde, il est extrêmement difficile de diminuer le taux d'accidents, en vertu du principe du «risque homéostatique» : plus une route sera sûre, plus les automobilistes iront vite. 2, record 14, French, - th%C3%A9orie%20du%20risque%20hom%C3%A9ostatique

A point on the operating characteristic curve corresponding to a predetermined and usually low probability of acceptance. This probability is then called the "consumer's risk" and the corresponding lot quality is called the limiting quality.
