Marketing the use of headgear in high contact sports
2021, Journal of Retailing and Consumer ServicesCitation Excerpt :Research shows risk assessment is often driven by emotional reactions rather than cognitive assessment, indicating that although participants are aware of the dangers of not wearing PPE during the sport, the thrill-seeking emotional appeal that induces positive game-playing enjoyment will negatively impact their risk assessment to purchase protective gear (Kummeneje and Rundmo, 2019). Sometimes, individuals may even believe their sport is less dangerous than others, even when this belief is unsubstantiated (e.g., Braham et al., 2004; Finch et al., 2003; Taylor et al., 2005). Other research also indicates risk perceptions are low, for example, for surfing (i.e., 5.7% consider it high risk and 32.3% moderate risk) (Taylor et al., 2005).

2013, PM and RCitation Excerpt :This is where the use of protective equipment results in behavioral change such as the adoption of more dangerous playing techniques, which can result in a paradoxical increase in injury rates. This may be a particular concern in child and adolescent athletes where head injury rates are often higher than in adult athletes [133-135]. The competitive and/or aggressive nature of sport that makes it fun to play and watch should not be discouraged.
