点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Adolescent injury is a significant problem that requires comprehensive and multi-level prevention approaches. Research has shown that a lack of adolescent connection in the school context is associated with injury-risk behaviour and adverse health outcomes. This study involves the development of a school connectedness intervention to increase the effectiveness of the individually-oriented Skills for Preventing Injury in Youth (SPIY) program in reducing adolescent risk behaviour and injury.
