枪支伤害是美国儿科公共卫生的一个重大挑战。本研究方案描述了开发研究，然后进行随机临床试验来评估 ShootSafe，这是一个交互式、引人入胜的教育网站，旨在教导儿童枪支安全。 ShootSafe 具有三个主要目标： (a) 教授儿童安全狩猎、射击和使用枪支所需的基本知识和技能； (b) 帮助儿童学习和磨练安全使用枪支所需的冲动控制和假设思维的关键认知技能； (c) 改变儿童对自己对枪支相关伤害的脆弱性和易感性、这些伤害的严重程度以及他们对枪支使用同伴行为的认知规范的看法。 ShootSafe 将通过互动游戏以及简短、有影响力的推荐视频和简短的专家主导的教育视频相结合来实现这些目标。网站开发完成后，ShootSafe 将通过一项针对 162 名 10-12 岁儿童的随机对照试验进行评估，随机分配儿童参与 ShootSafe 或主动控制网站。多项自我报告、基于计算机的行为测量将评估基线、培训后以及 4 个月随访时的功能。将考虑四组结果： 枪支安全知识；冲动控制和假设性思维的认知技能；对枪支安全的看法；以及处理、储存和运输枪支时的模拟行为。两种条件下的培训将包括两次 45 分钟的课程。如果结果如假设的那样，ShootSafe 提供了作为一个基于理论的项目的潜力，以一种易于理解、引人入胜和具有教育意义的方式向儿童传授枪支安全知识。转化为实践是高度可行的。该研究方案于 2020 年 10 月 11 日在 ClinicalTrials.gov 上注册 (NCT04622943)。
Firearms injuries present a major pediatric public health challenge in the United States. This study protocol describes research to develop and then conduct a randomized clinical trial to evaluate ShootSafe, an interactive, engaging, educational website to teach children firearms safety. ShootSafe has three primary goals: (a) teach children basic knowledge and skills needed to hunt, shoot, and use firearms safely; (b) help children learn and hone critical cognitive skills of impulse control and hypothetical thinking needed to use firearms safely; and (c) alter children’s perceptions about their own vulnerability and susceptibility to firearms-related injuries, the severity of those injuries, and their perceived norms about peer behavior surrounding firearms use. ShootSafe will accomplish these goals through a combination of interactive games plus short, impactful testimonial videos and short expert-led educational videos. Following website development, ShootSafe will be evaluated through a randomized controlled trial with 162 children ages 10–12, randomly assigning children to engage in ShootSafe or an active control website. Multiple self-report, computer-based, and behavioral measures will assess functioning at baseline, immediately following training, and at 4-month follow-up. Four sets of outcomes will be considered: firearms safety knowledge; cognitive skills in impulse control and hypothetical thinking; perceptions about firearms safety; and simulated behavior when handling, storing and transporting firearms. Training in both conditions will comprise two 45-min sessions. If results are as hypothesized, ShootSafe offers potential as a theory-based program to teach children firearms safety in an accessible, engaging and educational manner. Translation into practice is highly feasible. The study protocol was registered on 11/10/20 at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04622943).
