Increasing engagement and injury in extreme sports, characterized by heightened risks of injury, are positively associated with personality traits such as sensation seeking and impulsivity. However, the degree to which different self-report and behavioral measures of personality are related to extreme sports is unclear.
Data was collected from 1,019 undergraduate students.
Participants completed self-report surveys assessing sensation seeking (SSPTS), impulsivity (BIS-11), Big Five personality traits (TIPI), and behavioral impulsivity tasks.
Sensation seeking, particularly the risk seeking subscale, was most strongly associated with extreme sports participation ( = .24, < .01) and injury ( = .21, < .01) across various sports. Big Five traits were also better predictors of study outcomes than measures of impulsivity.
This work contributes to the ability to tailor prevention and intervention efforts to individuals involved in a range of extreme sports, ultimately mitigating health risks through personality assessment.
极限运动中的参与度和受伤率不断上升，其特点是受伤风险增加，这与寻求刺激和冲动等人格特质呈正相关。然而，不同的人格自我报告和行为测量方式与极限运动的关联程度尚不清楚。
从1019名本科生中收集数据。
参与者完成了自我报告调查，评估寻求刺激（SSPTS）、冲动性（BIS-11）、大五人格特质（TIPI）以及行为冲动性任务。
寻求刺激，尤其是风险寻求子量表，在各类运动中与极限运动参与度（r = 0.24，p < 0.01）和受伤率（r = 0.21，p < 0.01）的关联最为强烈。大五人格特质也是比冲动性测量更好的研究结果预测指标。
这项工作有助于为参与一系列极限运动的个人量身定制预防和干预措施，最终通过人格评估降低健康风险。
