背景：农场安全日营是由当地社区成员组织和开展的基层教育干预活动。举办这些活动是为了促进生活在家庭农场或暴露于农业危险中的儿童的安全知识和行为。自20世纪90年代开始，农场安全日间训练营急剧增加以来，研究人员一直被要求评估其有效性。目的：本论文回顾了十多年来的研究，描述了目前已知的关于农场安全日有效性的情况，并提出了潜在的方法，以解决我们对其有效性所知的差距问题。结论：这些评估结果表明，农场安全日对儿童的安全行为和知识有积极的影响，但这些干预措施的有效性和影响仍有待调查。
Background: Farm safety day camps are grassroots educational interventions organized and conducted by members of a local community. These events are held in an effort to promote safety knowledge and behavior in children who live on family farms or are exposed to the hazards of the agricultural industry. Since the dramatic increase in farm safety day camps beginning in the 1990s, researchers have been called upon to evaluate their effectiveness. Purpose: The current paper reviews more than a decade of research, describing what is currently known about the effectiveness of farm safety days and suggesting potential methods for addressing questions regarding gaps in what we know about their effectiveness. Conclusions: The results of these evaluations indicate that farm safety days have a positive impact on children's safety behavior and knowledge; however, much remains to be investigated regarding the effectiveness and impact of these interventions.
