衝浪運動參與者休閒涉入、風險認知與知覺勝任關係之研究

Abstract

近年來衝浪運動在臺灣日漸風行，在衝浪人口愈來愈多的同時，衝浪運動之安全性也受到高度關注。本研究旨在探討臺灣衝浪運動參與者休閒涉入 、風險認知與知覺勝任等變項之關係。以臺灣數個衝浪地點的396位衝浪參與者為研究對象，採問卷調查法；抽樣方式為立意抽樣，並將所得資料以描述性統計、單因子變異數分析、獨立樣本t檢定、雪費事後考驗、皮爾森積差相關等統計方法進行資料處理與分析；藉以瞭解各變項間之關係。 研究結果發現：一、不同人口統計變項之臺灣衝浪運動參與者在休閒涉入、風險認知與知覺勝任有不同表現；二、不同休閒涉入程度之臺灣衝浪運動參與者在風險認知與知覺勝任有不同表現；三、臺灣衝浪運動參與者之風險認知與知覺勝任有顯著相關。據此結果發現學生及女性族群是潛在可開發的衝浪族群；對於衝浪年資較低之衝浪運動參與者有必要加強其對風險認知的教育認知與宣導。此外，建議後續研究除透過研究設計擴大研究範圍外，也可採技術層面而非衝浪年資做為分類分析之依據，以了解不同技術層面之衝浪運動參與者之參與情形。Surfing has become one of the popular activities in Taiwan in recent years. As the population of surfing has grown dramatically, the issue of safety in surfing has been deeply concerned. The purpose of this study was to discuss the relationships among Leisure Involvement, Perceived Risk and Perceived Competence of Surfers in Taiwan. Purposive sampling questionnaires were used to collect data and a total of 396 surfers were recruited at several surfing spots in Taiwan. The study used descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way Anova, and Pearson correlation analysis to analyze the collected data. The study found: 1. Surfers of different demographic backgrounds have different performance in leisure involvement, perceived risk and perceived competence. 2. Surfers of different level of leisure involvement have different performance in perceived risk and perceived competence. 3. There is highly correlation between perceived risk and perceived competence. The study found that students and women are latent consumers in Surfing Surfers with less experience need to strengthen their risks management in surfing. Finally, the study suggested that future study could sort out surfers by level of skills so as to get much more useful information.
