Abstract

Trauma due to road crashes is the leading cause of death and injury in Canadian children younger than 14 years, despite mandatory use of vehicle restraints since 1977. A multisite intervention study using a pretest-posttest design was conducted in four Ontario cities to test the effectiveness of an educational program on parents' knowledge of safety system use for children (0-12 years) 6 weeks following the educational intervention. The sample consisted of 418 families who reported on 732 children. Results indicated that knowledge increased significantly following the intervention. Use of professional sources of information was an important factor that is linked with increased parents' knowledge.

摘要

尽管自1977年起就强制使用车辆约束装置，但道路交通事故造成的创伤仍是加拿大14岁以下儿童死亡和受伤的主要原因。在安大略省的四个城市进行了一项采用前测-后测设计的多地点干预研究，以测试一项教育计划在教育干预6周后对父母关于儿童（0至12岁）安全系统使用知识的有效性。样本包括报告了732名儿童的418个家庭。结果表明，干预后知识显著增加。使用专业信息来源是与父母知识增加相关的一个重要因素。
