我们报告了一项关于儿童汽车安全座椅使用情况的调查结果,并检验了时间机会成本是正确使用座椅的重要决定因素的假设:我们发现,工资率高的父母正确使用汽车座椅的可能性较小。我们预测,需要1775美元的罚款,以及四年一次的逮捕,才能促使95%的人遵守儿童汽车安全座椅法律。
We report the results of a survey on child car safety seat usage and test the hypothesis that the opportunity cost of time is a significant determinant of proper seat use: We find that parents with high wage rates are less likely to properly use a car seat. We predict that a fine of $1775 along with a certainty of being apprehended once in a four year period would be needed to induce 95% compliance with child car safety seat laws.
