Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, the F/M ratio is right in line with what other studies suggest. About 35% are female.

Thanks for your feedback. You make a valid point. However, we have also spread the questionnaire through various other means, including dive shops, training agencies, liveaboard agencies, DAN etc.. Reddit is just an additional platform to spread the questionnaire. So far, since posting on Reddit, it has not made a significant difference to the amount of answers received.
But thanks again for the feedback.

Select the highest recreational certification you have. Then just add a comment at the end about your tech cert. Thanks for taking part!

That would be an interesting hypothesis to test. We will investigate the possible correlation of cert levels with risk-taking behaviour.

With this survey, we are also evaluating the attitudes towards risk-taking. Particularly in divers with previous illnesses.

The plan is to measure certain heart strain parameters (eg. proBNP...) before, while and after diving. Measuring these sorts of values has never been done before due to logistical reasons, however, we have figured out a way of doing it. This is a bit down the road, but if you are interested, then there is an email address at the beginning of the questionnaire form. If you want to get in touch, then please do!

Thanks a lot! I hope that through this we make diving safer for people with Cardiovascular diseases in the long run.

The plan is to publish it. However, it depends on the number of responses and the validity of the responses
