To explore behavioral factors that determine whether children (aged 7 to 13 years) wear bicycle safety helmets.
Cross-sectional survey.
Three Dutch primary schools in Breda, Maastricht, and Terneuzen, the Netherlands.
Two hundred fifty-nine children aged 7 to 13 years.
Wearing a bicycle safety helmet for 6 consecutive weeks.
Information about experiences with the bicycle safety helmet was gathered via questionnaires. Wearing a bicycle safety helmet was described as inconvenient, time-consuming, and uncomfortable. Children also perceived negative reactions from their social environment.
Planned health promotion activities will be essential for the introduction of bicycle safety helmets to be successful. These activities should focus particularly on developing a comfortable bicycle safety helmet, creating facilities to store bicycle safety helmets, and changing negative social norms regarding wearing a bicycle safety helmet.
探讨决定7至13岁儿童是否佩戴自行车安全头盔的行为因素。
横断面调查。
荷兰布雷达、马斯特里赫特和特尔讷曾的三所荷兰小学。
259名7至13岁的儿童。
连续6周佩戴自行车安全头盔。
通过问卷调查收集了有关自行车安全头盔使用体验的信息。佩戴自行车安全头盔被描述为不方便、耗时且不舒服。儿童还感受到来自其社会环境的负面反应。
有计划的健康促进活动对于成功引入自行车安全头盔至关重要。这些活动应特别侧重于开发舒适的自行车安全头盔、创建存放自行车安全头盔的设施以及改变有关佩戴自行车安全头盔的负面社会规范。
