I'm sorry but I find these arguments to be a load of bull. Why are we using behavior as an argument against wearing helmets? >making people wear helmets will make less people bike Why not increase bike advocacy instead? Participation does not eclipse safety. >a helmet may make people in general more reckless Again, behavior. > cars will pass closer to people when they are wearing a helmet than when they are unprotected Ditto. That's why I'm glad many states have the 3 feet law. We can improve this with advocacy and legislation. > if people need helmets, cycling is apparent a dangerous activity, attracting risk-seekers, skewing the statistics Attracting risk takers? Seriously? Almost everything rideable on wheels has people wearing helmets. They're just as likely to be attracted to skateboarding or rollerblading by that logic. I'll give you the last two points however, as those can be backed up with numbers, but just be aware that statistics can lie, mislead, and be misinterpreted, especially with non-controlled and non-optimal study designs.
