Would New Zealand adolescents cycle to school more if allowed to cycle without a helmet?

ConclusionsOne in five adolescents perceived helmet use to be a barrier to cycling to school. Diverse demographic and interpersonal factors as well as environmental influences were identified as significant correlates. The present findings can be used to design educational interventions to influence adolescents’ attitudes towards the helmet use.
