This study explored the relations between sensation seeking, impulsivity, risk compensation, and extreme-sports injury to better understand contributing factors to risk taking in extreme sports and subsequent adverse outcomes. Data included cross-sectional survey responses from 1,107 college students (M_age = 19.47, SD = 2.14). Poisson, logistic, and negative binomial regressions were used to investigate the relations of interest. Results indicate that sensation seeking and impulsivity are significantly associated with both risk compensation and extreme-sports injury. Risk compensation is significantly and positively associated with extreme-sports injury in mountain biking and snowboarding. Risk compensation did not significantly moderate the relation between the personality constructs of interest and extreme-sports injury. These results show that the role of risk compensation in extreme-sports injury is highly sport-specific. These results highlight the importance of considering both personality and risk compensation in prevention and intervention efforts.

这项研究探讨了感觉寻求，冲动，风险补偿和极限运动伤害之间的关系，以更好地理解极限运动和随后的不良后果中冒险的影响因素。数据包括从1107名大学生横断面调查回应（中号_年龄 = 19.47，SD = 2.14）。泊松，逻辑和负二项式回归用于研究兴趣关系。结果表明，寻求感觉和冲动与风险补偿和极限运动伤害均显着相关。风险补偿与山地自行车和滑雪板中的极限运动伤害有显着正相关。风险补偿并不能显着缓解兴趣型人格结构与极限运动伤害之间的关系。这些结果表明，风险补偿在极限运动伤害中的作用与运动密切相关。这些结果突出了在预防和干预工作中同时考虑人格和风险补偿的重要性。
