Bicycle Helmet Research - Short Survey

[jpm]

I am currently researching bicycle helmets for my university course in product design engineering and have produced a short survey which is I would be very grateful if you could complete. It only takes a couple of minutes and is complete confidential.

To take part in the survey click here please.

Hands up who wears them but isn't convinced they actually work B)

I wear a helmet but wish they could make them more chic - even the chic ones look geeky... But then whatever the "look" I think it's better to be safe than sorry even if the jury is out. It's not worth the risk really... it's not exactly hard putting a helmet on. B)

I dont wear a helmet my skull is triple butted and barring a colision with a P&O ferry unbreakable.

 

[Theseus]

Filled it in. Could do with more space for the written answers. Also gave the impression of being slanted rather than an objective survey.

Hmmm, I sense a 'convenient to carry helmet design will encourage more cyclists to wear a helmet' type product in design...

I sense yet another 'researcher' who is not interested in the forum. B)

Yeh judging by the majority of your posts there not much up top to protect anyway B)
I wear a helmet, never had to use it thankfully.

How about a separate section for researchers?!! B)

Maybe a chat with a few forum members beforehand might have been a better way to introduce yourself and your project / survey.

Some of us like a hug and a kiss before getting down to the nitty gritty ... B)

Cheers,

More than likely but what the hell? No-one's obliged to take part.

 

[Noodley]

No, but I know what is involved in undertaking research and the processes involved (e.g see Admin's post re asking permission)....

It's the one-post wonders that I'm not too keen on. "Hello, help me do my work" ... and we never hear from them again.

No follow-up; no sharing of information they've gained from CC'ers; and no ciggie / cuddle afterwards ... B)

Wheeledweenie was an example of how to do it. She asked, shared, chatted, and in fact ended up staying.

I'm not suggesting everyone who wants to do a survey should become a CC regular, but it would be nice if they took part a bit and gave something back in the process.

Besides, I'm sure a few more people might be more interested if they knew a bit more of what the survey was about, and could have some interaction with the researcher beforehand.

Cheers,
Shaun
