本研究的目的是比较家长和老师作为个人安全计划指导者的有效性。六十一名低收入学龄前儿童接受了预测试，并参加了家庭计划、学校计划或对照计划。孩子们接受了知识和技能增益的事后测试。由教师或家长教导的儿童组之间没有发现显着差异，并且与对照组相比，这两个组的儿童都表现出更多的关于性虐待的知识和更高水平的个人安全技能。在两个月的随访中，知识和技能的增长得以维持。教师没有报告与项目相关的负面行为增加，家长也没有认为孩子们在参与后感到更加恐惧。这些结果表明，家长在向学龄前儿童教授人身安全技能方面与教师一样有效，并且这些计划可以在家庭和学校安全有效地实施。
The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of parents and teachers as instructors of a personal safety program. Sixty-one low-income preschool children were pretested and participated in either a homebased program, a school-based program, or a control program. Children were posttested on knowledge and skill gains. No significant differences were found between groups of children taught by teachers or parents, and children in both of these groups demonstrated greater knowledge about sexual abuse and higher levels of personal safety skills compared with controls. Knowledge and skill gains were maintained at the two-month follow-up. No program-related increases in negative behaviors were reported by teachers, nor were the treatment children perceived by their parents as more fearful subsequent to participation. These results suggest that parents are as effective as teachers at teaching skills in personal safety to preschool-age children, and that the programs can be implemented safely and effectively both at home and at school.
