This project aims to explain why some lifesaving interventions are implemented in the United States while others are not. Findings should prove useful to decision makers who are responsibe for promoting the implementation of lifesaving interventions. The proposal calls for (1) Identifying 300 lifesaving interventions in the fields of medicine, consumer product safety, transportation safety, environmental protection, and occupational safety and health that have been analyzed for cost-effectiveness. (2) Collecting data on the extent to which these interventions are currently implemented in the United States, the primary dependent variable under study. (3) Collecting data on economic, psychological and political variables that theory suggests may explain the extent of implementation. (4) Incorporating this information into a computerized database to be managed at the Harvard Center for RIsk Analysis, (5) Estimating an explanatory model using a variety of statistical methods. (6) Publishing two papers, one describing the HCRA database and one reporting the results of the explanatory model. ***//

这个项目旨在解释为什么一些挽救生命的干预措施在美国实施，而另一些则没有。调查结果对负责促进实施挽救生命的干预措施的决策者应证明是有用的。该提案要求(1)在医药、消费品安全、运输安全、环境保护和职业安全与健康领域确定300项挽救生命的干预措施，并对这些干预措施的成本效益进行了分析。(2)收集有关这些干预措施目前在美国实施程度的数据，这是研究中的主要因变量。(3)收集有关经济、心理和政治变量的数据，理论认为这些变量可以解释实施的程度。(4)将这些信息纳入由哈佛风险分析中心管理的计算机数据库；(5)使用各种统计方法估计一个解释性模型。(6)发表两篇论文，一篇描述HCRA数据库，一篇报告解释模型的结果。* * * / /
