Moving Targets: Bicycle-Related Injuries and Helmet Use among University Students.
Fullerton, Lynne; Becker, Thomas
Journal of American College Health, v39 n5 p213-17 Mar 1991
Study evaluated bicycling habits and helmet use in 100 university students. Only 31 owned helmets, and 17 wore them during most trips. Helmet ownership was most strongly associated with previous injuries. Ethnicity and possession of bicycle injury insurance were also factors. Perceived risk was an important factor in helmet use.
