Opis

The risk of drowning associated with aquatic §recreation is the consequence of many underlying §water safety influences that operate at §intrapersonal, interpersonal and community levels. A §nationwide survey was completed by New Zealand youth §(n=2202, 15 19 year olds) to obtain comprehensive §data on what young people know, think and do about §their safety during aquatic recreation. Almost all §respondents had taken part in some swimming (98%) in §the previous year. Risk of drowning was exacerbated §among many students because they had poor safety §skills and knowledge, held unsound attitudes, and §often reported risky behaviours. For example, many §students estimated that they could not swim more §than 100 m (54%), had swum outside surf patrol flags §(61%) or never wore lifejackets (19%) during aquatic §recreation. Taken separately, any of these §dispositions is capable of heightening drowning §risk; taken collectively they offer strong §explanation as to why some youth are at greater risk §of drowning than others. When analysed by gender, a §lack of male water safety knowledge, a prevalence of §unsafe attitudes, and at-risk behaviours was §consistent and pronounced.
