Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

study of behaviors and attitudes in sport.

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Dear all,
I am currently gathering data for my 3rd year research project at Bangor University, the study looks at people's attitudes and behaviors in sport, specifically, higher risk sports.

If you are 18 or over and have been involved in skiing/boarding etc... for 3 years or more and have a spare 10/15 minuets, your contribution would be greatly appreciated.

Please follow this link to complete the survey:

https://survey.psychology.bangor.ac.uk/riskbehaviors

If you have any questions or queries please feel free to contact me at peu818@bangor.ac.uk

Many thanks in advance.
Miles Hill.

Well I filled that in and unlike the last one, I was able to answer the questions although the subject matter was much the same as here http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=67461 . Nowely ought to learn something from it... but he won't and will stick to his outdated set of questions

Lizzard,

Once a year could mean one run or one day a year - or anything really. I ski 3 separate weeks a year, usually (I can do punter). None of the answers apply. I stopped when I got to the question.

There's one with 'Sometimes I...' with the options Never, rarely, sometimes. It's a bit of a closed question.

apart from that, not a bad test for A type personalities.

I recall the 'I would enjoy the sensation of skiing fast down a mountin slope' from my psychology level 1 when a researcher was trying to correlate personality types with hypnotic susceptibility.

Interesting stuff.

Dear all,
Many thanks to everyone who has took part so far. I am a skier/climber/kayaker etc... myself and sympathize with the tedium of these surveys. It has come to my attention that a lot of people (from all walks of sports) are pretty annoyed that they spent the time doing these surveys then never hear anything again about them. I shall endeavor to make all results available through here once the whole things is complete.

I appreciate one or two of the questions are ambiguous at best, this survey has been posted all over the place so making it forum specific would be a nightmare (and frankly beyond my computing abilities).

Again many thanks for your help in this matter, if you happen to be in Austria/Germany over New Year I may well bump into you in the back bowls.

mileshill540, I ski 3 weeks per year plus, perhaps, a weekend. This comes to about 25 days of actual skiing. So is this 4 times per year or 25 times per year?
