Abstract: | High-risk sports, such as skydiving, parachuting, and hang gliding, have become increasingly popular in recent years. This article uses expectancy-value theory to integrate previous research on risky behavior and risky sports. The model that is developed relates the expected benefits of risky sports to several antecedents: specifically, thrill and adventure seeking, arousal avoidance,role relaxation, and age. Two samples are drawn to represent the general population as well as people just joining risky-sports clubs. |
