The statewide Burn Prevention Program has demonstrated a significant improvement in testable knowledge of burn prevention and fire safety among children and senior citizens as a result of an effective educational program. Formal evaluation using written examinations was done with the children. The statistical significance of the results of these evaluations was analyzed using chi square tests and two sample t tests. Significant improvements were seen in both mean test scores and the percentage of children answering all the test questions correctly. A much less formal type of evaluation was done with the elderly group. Senior citizens were assisted with a pre-program questionnaire. The results of this questionnaire were compared to the results of "BURN-GO" (copyright 1986), a bingotype game, played immediately after the educational session. Again, the post-implementation results of the program were significantly higher than those achieved prior to the intervention.
全州范围的烧伤预防项目通过有效的教育计划，在儿童和老年人对烧伤预防及消防安全的可测试知识方面取得了显著改善。对儿童进行了使用书面考试的正式评估。使用卡方检验和双样本t检验分析了这些评估结果的统计学意义。平均测试分数和正确回答所有测试问题的儿童百分比均有显著提高。对老年群体进行的评估则不太正式。在项目开展前为老年人提供了一份问卷。将这份问卷的结果与教育课程结束后立即进行的“烧伤大冒险”（版权所有1986年）这一宾果游戏的结果进行了比较。同样，该项目实施后的结果显著高于干预前取得的结果。
