The focus of the management of outdoor activities is keeping participants safe. Developing safety management practices (SMPs) encourages participants' safe behaviour (SB) and prevents accidents. The study examined the relationship between SMPs and SB among outdoor participants. Two hundred and fifty outdoor participants were respondents. The Vinodkumar and Bhasi questionnaire was administered to the participants. The majority of respondents, 49.4% (n=126), participated in outdoor activities once or twice a week. Results showed a moderate relationship between SMPs and SB (r (255) = 0.697, p<0.001). The study recommends that outdoor activities management should implement policies to promote safety to prevent accidents.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
