Investigated anticipation and prevention of children's unintentional injuries in the home. 150 mothers of 1-, 2-, and 3-year-old children kept weekly diaries of anticipated injuries and unanticipated injuries/near injuries to their child. Mothers anticipated between 57 and 67% of all injury events, a majority when the child was in the same room as the injury-causing agent prior to interacting with it. Few anticipated injuries led to injury. In these cases no significant differences were found depending on child's age and sex. In contrast, mothers of younger children most frequently reported preventing injury by physically restricting or moving the child away and by changing the environment, whereas mothers of older children more frequently engaged in teaching.
研究了家庭中儿童意外伤害的预测与预防。150名1岁、2岁和3岁儿童的母亲每周记录对孩子可能发生的伤害以及意外发生的伤害/险些发生的伤害情况。母亲们预测到了所有伤害事件中的57%至67%，在孩子与致伤因素接触之前处于同一房间时，大多数伤害事件能被预测到。很少有预测到的伤害真的发生。在这些情况下，根据孩子的年龄和性别未发现显著差异。相比之下，年幼儿童的母亲最常报告通过身体限制或转移孩子以及改变环境来预防伤害，而年龄较大儿童的母亲则更常采用教导的方式。
