abstract="One feature of how sport is defined is the distinction between extreme and non-extreme sport. BASE jumping is an example of an &quot;extreme sport&quot; because it involves a high degree of risk, whilst swimming is classified as &quot;non-extreme&quot; because the risks involved are minimal. This broad definition falls short of identifying the extent of risk and ignores the psychological, social-demographic and life style variables associated with engagement in each sport.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
