This study investigated the extent to which a sample of Italian users comprehended safety pictorials used on agricultural machinery. A questionnaire with 12 safety pictorials was administered to 248 users of agricultural machinery. For each of the pictorials, the participants were asked to select the most appropriate description of four written choices. The investigated safety pictorials were, in general, not well comprehended. Two different classes of participants were identified, each with a different level of comprehension. The participants with better comprehension were characterized by the regular use of agricultural machinery and frequent previous exposure to pictorials. The need for training courses focusing on safety pictorials and their meanings, as well as the need for improvement to the pictorials themselves to make them more easily comprehended, is discussed.
本研究调查了意大利用户样本对农业机械上使用的安全图片的理解程度。向248名农业机械用户发放了一份包含12张安全图片的问卷。对于每张图片，要求参与者从四个书面选项中选择最合适的描述。总体而言，所调查的安全图片未得到很好的理解。识别出了两类不同的参与者，他们的理解水平各不相同。理解能力较好的参与者的特点是经常使用农业机械且之前频繁接触图片。文中讨论了开展专注于安全图片及其含义的培训课程的必要性，以及改进图片本身以使其更易于理解的必要性。
