  • Uncertainty, Precaution & Perception: Communicating the Risk of Heading in Football
    University of Otago Uncertainty, Precaution & Perception: Communicating the Risk of Heading in Football Alexander William Gilbert A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Communication Centre for Science Communication, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand July 2020 A. Gilbert Abstract Concerns regarding the short and long-term effects of sport-related head injury have grown in recent decades. The damage incurred by mild traumatic brain injury in the context of collision sports has thus received significant attention in both the media and in scientific research. Although this field of enquiry largely concerns the neurological impact of acute head injury (including concussion), a recent proliferation of research considering more subtle mechanisms of brain damage has also taken place. General observations from the study of “subconcussion” suggest a potential link between repeated head impacts of a subclinical nature and increased risk of neurodegeneration. The act of intentionally playing the ball with one’s head, or “heading”, is an integral part of football gameplay, and has since been identified as a potential vehicle of subconcussive injury. Despite the lack of conclusive evidence for a link between the act of heading and increased risk of brain injury, both the United States and the United Kingdom have recently taken precautionary measures by introducing regulations on junior heading exposure. To date, no empirical study has investigated public perceptions of heading as a possible health risk. The present study explored attitudes of the New Zealand public towards heading in an effort to gauge how the factors of scientific uncertainty and precautionary information influence heading- related risk perceptions.
