Offer your insights as a baseball fan for a Risk Assessment Study
8 comments
What are you asking, exactly? What kind of risk is there in going to a live baseball game? I think almost every fan who has ever been to a game or seen one on tv knows the risks with balls going into the stands. I believe there is language on the tickets that talks about the risks too, or at least there used to be.
Keep this shit out of baseball. We don’t need more of this bs. Soon you’re gonna have to sign a damn waiver to go to a baseball game because people that don’t normally go to baseball games spilled their nachos after a foul ball dropped into their lap.
Real simple to avoid risk.
Eyes off your phone and watch the game
The extended netting was a good idea imo. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a firm believer that if you’re not paying attention and get hurt, that’s all on you. But some of those seats right behind the dugouts or just after have very little reaction time, and the nets are a harmless way to make sure kids or people slightly distracted don’t take a ball to the dome at 100+ mph
If they die, they die.
Is this IRB approved? Do participants need to be 28 years old? What is the contact information for the researcher and supervisor? Why don’t you identify yourself? How does the participant know they are not doing your market research for free (I.e., being exploited?Why don’t participants have the option not to answer questions? Why aren’t you paying people a nominal amount – even a lottery – for their time. By many standards that’s unethical. The data need not be anonymous / you ask enough granular questions to identify a specific nonbinary person of a particular age in a given zip code. There is no debriefing.
Sorry to be a pedant but 1. I teach research methods and these are basic things; and 2. This has nothing to do with the team – you’re just spamming a lot of forums. I’m sorry to say you are getting poor training in research methods.
