This project aims to minimise incorrect use of child restraints, which triple the risk of injury to children in car crashes. One in two children travelling in cars are incorrectly restrained. Using naturalistic and epidemiological studies, this project will characterise child restraint design features that minimise errors related to the real world interaction between restraint design, parents and children, and determine the effectiveness of using optimally designed restraints. This research will help child restraint manufacturers to improve their products and design better child restraint systems, that reduce injury to children in crashes.

该项目旨在最大限度地减少对儿童安全座椅的不正确使用，这会使儿童在车祸中受伤的风险增加两倍。每两个开车的孩子中就有一个被错误地约束住了。利用自然主义和流行病学研究，该项目将描述儿童座椅设计的特点，将与座椅设计、父母和儿童之间的现实世界互动相关的错误降至最低，并确定使用优化设计的座椅的有效性。这项研究将帮助儿童安全座椅制造商改进他们的产品，设计更好的儿童安全座椅系统，以减少儿童在车祸中的伤害。
