This survey documented self-reported health and safety behaviors of parents of children enrolled in Head Start programs. The sample consisted of eight preschool programs (n = 1143) from different geographical areas of the country. This survey obtained baseline data on parent self-reported behavior as it relates to priority issues in child health and safety. A 25-item questionnaire assessed parents' behavior related to injury prevention, fire and electrical safety, firearm storage, poison prevention, automobile safety, and child supervision. More than 90% of parents reported they use car seats, teach handwashing and pedestrian safety, and keep medicine and alcohol out of children's reach. Fewer than 60%, however, reported they keep guns and bullets stored separately and locked, possess a working fire extinguisher, or have the poison control telephone number available. Findings provide direction for emphasis for those developing or implementing a comprehensive family health education program.
这项调查记录了参加“启智计划”项目儿童的家长自我报告的健康与安全行为。样本包括来自美国不同地理区域的8个学前教育项目（n = 1143）。该调查获取了与儿童健康和安全优先问题相关的家长自我报告行为的基线数据。一份包含25个条目的问卷评估了家长在预防伤害、消防安全与电气安全、枪支存放、预防中毒、汽车安全以及儿童监管方面的行为。超过90%的家长报告称他们使用儿童安全座椅、教授洗手和行人安全知识，并将药品和酒精放在儿童够不到的地方。然而，报告称将枪支和子弹分开存放并上锁、拥有一个可用的灭火器或掌握中毒控制电话号码的家长不到60%。研究结果为那些制定或实施综合家庭健康教育项目的人提供了重点方向。
