Description

The survey was developed as part of a Ph.D. project investigating potential changes in children’s outdoor activity in Australian early childhood education and care centres during the pandemic and measuring educators’ tolerance of risk. The survey was developed from surveys identified in a systematic review (Liu et al., 2022) and a validated teacher tolerance of risk scale(T-TRiPS) (Ihrig, 2020), which was modified for the purpose of the study. The survey was designed for online delivery using LimeSurvey as the platform. The use of the survey was approved by the Macquarie University Human Ethics Committee (Reference No: 520221188140234).References:Ihrig, K. (2020).
