Gratuitous risk: danger and recklessness perception of adventure sports participants.
Since the 1970's there has been a major increase in adventure sports participation but it seems that engagement in such sports comes with a stigma: adventure sports participants are often regarded as reckless 'daredevils'.

We approach the questions about people's perception of risk and recklessness in adventure sports by combining empirical research with philosophical analysis.

We contextualise these findings within existing psychological risk perception paradigms and outline new philosophical explanations of the identified pattern in laypeople's risk perception. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 2024 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
