A player must decide whether the opportunity presented is good enough to take a shot… this of course changes as a function of amongst other things… the shot clock, the players experience, the score of the game, the history of the quality of shots the team has seen recently, the offense the team is running, and whether that rookie shooting guard of yours thinks he knows better than the coach does I have always wondered about that last part... Is there a hidden trait that players have that influences how much they shoot?

I don't think so. It is typically accepted that this depends on experience.

we can argue quite a bit over this, and there is no easy way to verify it, unfortunately.
