De fietshelm, een teken van kunde of van onkunde : resultaten van een belevingsstudie naar het dragen van fietshelmen in Nederland. In opdracht van de Stichting Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek Verkeersveiligheid SWOV.

Bicycle helmets are not obligatory in The Netherlands. This report presents the results of a qualitative, psychological study into the perception and behaviour of the voluntary wearing of a bicycle helmet. General cyclists wear no helmet, sometimes children do wear them, and most sport cyclists use a helmet, recreational cyclists often do not use a helmet. The attitude to wear a helmet was measured during special tests, and some recommendations are presented to stimulate the use of a bicycle helmet.
