During the winter of 1974/75, 528 skiing accidents in the Davos area were investigated in connection the weather influences. It was found that during high pressure conditions the accident rate increased and was very low under low pressure conditions. This result is explained by high pressure conditions often inducing the skier to more daring modes of skiing. Consequently the fine weather influences the accident risk to skiers through mental stimulation. The low accident rate in low pressure conditions can be explained insofar as in bad weather only advanced skier dare to go on the ski-run and the danger-prone beginners stay at home. In addition most skiers are conscious of the risk in unpleasant weather and ski correspondingly carefully. The accident rate decreased from the beginning to the end of the 1974/75 season.
在1974/75年冬季，对达沃斯地区的528起滑雪事故与天气影响的关系进行了调查。结果发现，在高压天气条件下事故率上升，而在低压天气条件下事故率很低。这一结果的解释是，高压天气条件常常促使滑雪者采用更冒险的滑雪方式。因此，晴朗的天气通过精神刺激影响滑雪者的事故风险。低压天气条件下事故率低可以这样解释，即恶劣天气时只有高级滑雪者敢去滑雪道，而容易出事故的初学者则待在家里。此外，大多数滑雪者意识到在恶劣天气中的风险，相应地会更加小心地滑雪。1974/75赛季从开始到结束事故率呈下降趋势。
