Compared with other age groups, teenagers have the lowest rate of safety belt use. We sought to determine whether an ongoing, student-led initiative would be effective in increasing safety belt use among high school students compared with another school in which the intervention did not take place. At the intervention school, there was a statistically significant increase of 15% in observed safety belt use and evidence of increased knowledge regarding proper safety belt use. High schools can be effective in changing the traffic safety behaviors of its students.
与其他年龄组相比，青少年使用安全带的比例最低。我们试图确定一项由学生主导的持续倡议，与另一所未进行干预的学校相比，是否能有效提高高中生使用安全带的比例。在干预学校，观察到的安全带使用率在统计学上显著提高了15%，并且有证据表明学生对正确使用安全带的知识有所增加。高中在改变学生的交通安全行为方面可以发挥有效作用。
