Abstract

With the development of mountain sports, there are more and more participants but frequent safety accidents mainlyvictimizing participants. And even caused forest fires because participants smoked. However, as the motivation of participants is the driving force of their actions, theimpact on their safety behavior will inevitably affect the safety of participants in outdoor sports.And if Mountain outdoor Sportsmen are smokers, their safe behavior may be more difficult to control without smoking. Methods: in this study, a qualitative analysis was conducted on 33 interview materials to explore the mechanism of influence of participation motivation of mountain enthusiasts on safety behaviors, and the logical deduction and connotation explanation were carried out based on existing theories.Results: (1)Tobacco control environment does not affect participants’ participation motivation, so it does not affect participants’ safety behavior through participation motivation; (2) Mountain outdoor Sportsmen’ participation motivation has an impact on safety behavior; (3) Safety awareness is an intermediate variable of the influence of mountain outdoor Sportsmen’ participation in mountain outdoor sports on safety behavior; (4) Role clarity is the moderating variable of mountain outdoor sports participants’ influence on safety behavior. Conclusions: Smoking control environment cannot affect the safety behavior of mountain outdoor athletes through participation motivation, and there may be another mechanism, which needs to be further explored.  The participation motivation of mountain outdoor sportsmen affected the safety behavior through the safety perception, but was moderated by Role clarity. And This mechanism needs further quantitative verification.
