An academic, business, and community alliance comprising 285 organizations, including 43 national groups represented on a Blue Ribbon Panel organized by the U.S. Secretary of Transportation, targeted Arkansas, Florida, Mississippi, Minnesota, Tennessee, and Wisconsin for high involvement/intervention consisting of community organization and other political action to support passage of primary seat belt laws. State-level alliance activities began in January 2003. All six states enacted a primary seat belt law between 2004 and 2009. From January 2003 to May 2010, passage of primary legislation was 4.5 times as likely (95% CI 1.90, 10.68) in states with high versus low alliance involvement. Positive interaction between high alliance involvement and offers of federal incentives may have occurred as well. This evidence of success suggests that academic-business-community alliances for action to promote evidence-based public health policy may be effective.
一个由285个组织组成的学术、商业和社区联盟,其中包括由美国运输部长组织的蓝带小组中代表的43个全国性团体,将阿肯色州、佛罗里达州、密西西比州、明尼苏达州、田纳西州和威斯康星州作为高参与度/干预对象,采取包括社区组织和其他政治行动在内的措施,以支持主要安全带法律的通过。州一级的联盟活动于2003年1月开始。所有六个州在2004年至2009年期间都颁布了主要安全带法律。从2003年1月到2010年5月,联盟参与度高的州通过主要立法的可能性是参与度低的州的4.5倍(95%置信区间为1.90, 10.68)。联盟高参与度与联邦激励措施的提供之间也可能存在积极互动。这一成功证据表明,为促进基于证据的公共卫生政策而采取行动的学术-商业-社区联盟可能是有效的。
