Today, one of the most serious causes of mortality and disability among youth is the traffic accidents. Regarding its importance, this paper aimed to investigate the community-based program to promote the safe traffic behaviors among youth.
This was a quasi-experimental conducted on 5000 youth in five Iranian cities named Lanjan, Gomishan, Fasa, Tehran, and Zahedan in 2015-2016. The questionnaire was based on the constructs of the theory of planned behavior as well as a questionnaire of pedestrian behavior and driving behavior, which was completed before and after the intervention. The educational intervention was carried out based on the theory of planned behavior. Finally, the obtained data were analyzed using STATA software.
Six months after the intervention, the mean score of the theory of planned behavior and safe driving behavior in different cities was significantly increased. Here, regarding the safe crossing of the street, the most behavioral changes were observed in Gomishan ( = 0.000), Fasa ( = 0.001), and Tehran ( < 0.0001). The mean score of driving behaviors in Gomishan ( < 0.000), Fasa ( = 0.016), Lanjan ( = 0.047), and Tehran ( < 0.0001) scores was significantly higher.
In most of the studied cities, it can be concluded that education based on the theory of planned behavior can improve the safe driving behaviors among youth. Therefore, it is recommended to be implemented this program in other cities using the theory of planned behavior.
如今,交通事故是青年人群中最严重的死亡和残疾原因之一。鉴于其重要性,本文旨在调查以社区为基础的促进青年安全交通行为的项目。
这是一项在2015 - 2016年对伊朗五个城市(兰詹、戈米山、法萨、德黑兰和扎黑丹)的5000名青年进行的准实验。问卷基于计划行为理论的结构以及一份行人行为和驾驶行为问卷,在干预前后完成。教育干预基于计划行为理论进行。最后,使用STATA软件对获得的数据进行分析。
干预六个月后,不同城市的计划行为理论和安全驾驶行为的平均得分显著提高。在此,关于安全过马路,在戈米山( = 0.000)、法萨( = 0.001)和德黑兰( < 0.0001)观察到的行为变化最大。戈米山( < 0.000)、法萨( = 0.016)、兰詹( = 0.047)和德黑兰( < 0.0001)的驾驶行为平均得分显著更高。
在大多数研究城市中,可以得出结论,基于计划行为理论的教育可以改善青年的安全驾驶行为。因此,建议在其他城市运用计划行为理论实施该项目。
