Rock climbers: Deliberate or precautionary risk takers in relation to sensation-seeking
A group of rock climbers were classified into two categories, deliberate or precautionary risk-takers, using the Risk-Taking Inventory (RTI). The aim of the study was to determine if these categories played a role in sensation-seeking behaviour. The study also aimed to determine if the type of risk-taking behaviour correlated with the number of injuries sustained by the participants. The study was quantitative in nature and an exploratory design was used. A sample of 70 rock climbers from the Mountain Club of South Africa participated. Participants completed a demographic questionnaire, the RTI and the Sensation Seeking Scale-V. Non-parametric statistics were used. The results revealed statistically significant differences between the two risk-taking groups on the total score of the Sensation Seeking Scale-V and its subscales of Disinhibition and Boredom Susceptibility. No significant correlations were observed between the RTI groups and the number of injuries sustained. A significant positive correlation was, however, found between the number of injuries and number of years rock climbing. The results indicated that being a precautionary or deliberate risk-taker will have an impact on rock climbers’ sensation-seeking behaviour but will have no effect on the number of injuries these groups sustain.
期刊介绍:
The South African Journal for Research in Sport, Physical education and Recreation (SAJRSPER) is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original research articles, systematic reviews, commentaries, and letters on topics related to Sport and Exercise science, Physical education and Recreation. This includes research of topics such as bio-mechanics, motor control, sport injuries and rehabilitation, clinical exercise interventions, physical education, as well as outdoor and recreation related topics. Material that is particularly unique and relevant to the subject content at an international and national level would be considered.
