| description | Little is known about the relationship between real and perceived water competence
among youth in the context of drowning prevention or of their perceptions of their
risk of drowning. This study reports the findings of an international project entitled
Can You Swim? Collegiate physical education students (n = 373) were assessed
in a two-part study using an initial questionnaire survey to provide self-estimates
of water competency and risk perception, followed by six practical tests in the
water. Correlation coefficients between perceived and real swimming (rs = 0.369)
and floating (rs = 0.583) skills were significant but only moderate in strength. No
significant gender differences in real or perceived water competency were found.
Significantly more males than females estimated lower risk of drowning associated
with a series of aquatic scenarios (p = 0.016). The implications of these findings
on drowning prevention and the need for further investigation are discussed. |
