DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Although bicycle, pedestrian, and wheeled sports collisions are one of the leading causes of death and severe injury in children, there are currently no empirically-based, easily implemented prevention programs targeting comprehensive bicycle, pedestrian, and wheeled sports safety skills for children grades 4-8. Data from this age group indicate that multi-component interventions targeting peers, school staff, child, and family are optimal to effectively change the safety behaviors of older children. This project will develop an interactive multimedia program to enhance bicycle, pedestrian, and wheeled sports safety skills for children in grades 4-8, for use in both school and home settings. The Phase I prototype covered 2 of the critical safety skills required for safe navigation on foot and by bike in the community: (a) understanding complex traffic patterns, and (b) appropriate helmet use. In Phase II programs for additional targeted groups (parents, and school staff) will be developed, and the interactive safety program will be expanded to include: (a) a comprehensive set of safety skills (e.g., maintaining bike equipment, group riding, and crash avoidance) across urban, suburban, and rural environments; (b) school-wide implementation guidelines; (c) classroom activities; and (d) expansion materials for parents. The critical features of this project are the utilization of interactive media for tailoring the instructional presentation to the individual user, the incorporation of instructional design features that have been shown to achieve maximum learning, the application of safety skills in video-based examples of real-life traffic situations, and age-matched video modeling. The program will be grounded in behavior change theory and will incorporate computer-based assessment with remediation to ensure content mastery. Phase II of the project will evaluate the efficacy of this comprehensive school-wide program in a large-scale clinical trial with 40 middle schools. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Bicycle, pedestrian, and wheeled sports crashes are a leading cause of unintentional childhood injury in the United States. Preteens and early adolescents are particularly vulnerable to this public health problem. This program has the potential to reduce injuries in this population by increasing the practice of safe walking and biking behaviors.

描述（由申请人提供）：尽管自行车、行人和轮式运动碰撞是儿童死亡和严重受伤的主要原因之一，但目前还没有针对4 - 8年级儿童的全面自行车、行人和轮式运动安全技能的基于预防的、易于实施的预防计划。来自这个年龄组的数据表明，针对同龄人，学校工作人员，儿童和家庭的多组分干预措施是有效改变年龄较大的儿童的安全行为的最佳选择。该项目将开发一个交互式多媒体程序，以提高4 - 8年级儿童的自行车、行人和轮式运动安全技能，供学校和家庭使用。第一阶段的原型涵盖了在社区中步行和骑自行车安全导航所需的两项关键安全技能：（a）了解复杂的交通模式，（B）适当使用头盔。在第二阶段，将为其他目标群体（家长和学校工作人员）制定方案，并将扩大互动安全方案，包括：（a）一套全面的安全技能（例如，维护自行车设备，团体骑行和避免碰撞）在城市，郊区和农村环境;（B）全校范围的实施指南;（c）课堂活动;和（d）家长扩展材料。该项目的关键特征是利用交互式媒体为个人用户量身定制教学演示，结合教学设计功能，已被证明可以实现最大的学习，安全技能在基于视频的实例中的应用现实生活中的交通情况，和年龄匹配的视频建模。该计划将以行为改变理论为基础，并将基于计算机的评估与补救措施相结合，以确保掌握内容。该项目的第二阶段将在40所中学的大规模临床试验中评估这一全面的全校计划的有效性。 公共卫生相关性：自行车、行人和轮式运动碰撞是美国儿童意外伤害的主要原因。青春期前和青少年特别容易受到这一公共卫生问题的影响。该计划有可能通过增加安全步行和骑自行车行为的实践来减少这一人群的伤害。
