目的：建立一种衡量父母对儿童伤害风险认知的量表。方法采用忧虑评估与风险评估量表（WARE）对256名家长/监护人进行信度、因素结构和风险感知检测。结果WARE量表具有较高的内部一致性信度（alpha = 0.89）。家长低估了伤害/死亡率高的情况，高估了伤害/死亡率低的情况。结论像WARE量表这样的风险评估方法作为研究工具具有很大的潜力，并且可以根据研究人员的需要进行修改。
OBJECTIVES To develop a scale for measuring parental perceptions of childhood injury risk. METHODS The Worry Assessment and Risk Estimation (WARE) Scale was administered to 256 parents/guardians to examine reliability, factor structure, and perception of risk. RESULTS The WARE Scale has high internal consistency reliability (alpha = .89). Parents underestimated scenarios with high injury/death rates and overestimated scenarios with low injury/death rates. CONCLUSIONS Risk estimation measures such as the WARE Scale have great potential as research tools and may be modified to suit researchers' needs.
