Differences in subjective and objective safety may be explained by moderators that shape parental perceptions of the environment. This study examined associations between subjective and objective measures of traffic and crime safety in preschool parents (N = 240) and potential moderators. Community cohesion, social control, and physical activity parenting practices were measured. Objective measures of crime and traffic were measured at the block-group level. Linear models revealed perceived traffic was negatively associated with the traffic hazards (b = -0.03; 95 % CI: -0.05, -0.01; p = .041). Acculturation moderated the relationship between perceptions of disorder and crime (b = 0.001; 95 % CI: 0.000, 0.003; p = .044). Poor community cohesion moderated the relationship between perceptions of disorder and crime (b = 0.0015; 95 % CI: 0.0002, 0.0028; p = .028). Perceived traffic safety was associated with the traffic hazard index in parents of boys (b = -0.04; 95 % CI: -0.07, -0.01; p = .027). Acculturation and community cohesion can be used to align misperceptions of safety to actual safety to promote outdoor play.
主观和客观安全性的差异可能由影响父母对环境认知的调节因素来解释。本研究调查了学龄前儿童家长(N = 240)交通和犯罪安全性的主观与客观测量指标之间的关联以及潜在调节因素。测量了社区凝聚力、社会控制和体育活动育儿实践。在街区组层面测量了犯罪和交通的客观指标。线性模型显示,感知到的交通情况与交通危险呈负相关(b = -0.03;95%CI:-0.05,-0.01;p = 0.041)。文化适应调节了对混乱和犯罪的认知之间的关系(b = 0.001;95%CI:0.000,0.003;p = 0.044)。社区凝聚力差调节了对混乱和犯罪的认知之间的关系(b = 0.0015;95%CI:0.0002,0.0028;p = 0.028)。男孩家长感知到的交通安全与交通危险指数相关(b = -0.04;95%CI:-0.07,-0.01;p = 0.027)。文化适应和社区凝聚力可用于使对安全的误解与实际安全相匹配,以促进户外玩耍。
