Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine predictors of seat belt use among a sample of African American college students at three Midwestern institutions of higher education. Specifically, the impact of health beliefs, health locus control, and social learning on seat belt use were explored. Questionnaire data were collected from 222 African American college students and were put into a data set to perform multiple regression analyses to determine whether health beliefs, health locus of control, and social learning were significant predictors of consistent seat belt use. Social learning was the most significant predictor of consistent seat belt use. These results provide a framework for developing future interventions targeted at increasing seat belt usage rates among African Americans.

Book excerpt: Increasing seat belt use is one of the most effective and least costly ways of reducing the lives lost and injuries incurred on the nation's highways each year, yet about one in four drivers and front-seat passengers continues to ride unbuckled. The Transportation Research Board, in response to a congressional request for a study to examine the potential of in-vehicle technologies to increase belt use, formed a panel of 12 experts having expertise in the areas of automotive engineering, design, and regulation; traffic safety and injury prevention; human factors; survey research methods; economics; and technology education and consumer interest. This panel, named the Committee for the Safety Belt Technology Study, examined the potential benefits of technologies designed to increase belt use, determined how drivers view the acceptability of the technologies, and considered whether legislative or regulatory actions are necessary to enable their installation on passenger vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the study sponsor, funded and conducted interviews and focus groups of samples of different belt user groups to learn more about the potential effectiveness and acceptability of technologies ranging from seat belt reminder systems to more aggressive interlock systems, and provided the information collected to the study committee. The committee also supplemented its expertise by holding its second meeting in Dearborn, Michigan, where it met in proprietary sessions with several of the major automobile manufacturers, a key supplier, and a small business inventor of a shifter interlock system to learn of planned new seat belt use technologies as well as about company data concerning their effectiveness and acceptability. The committee's findings and recommendations are presented in this five-chapter report.

Book excerpt: Seat belt use was statistically significantly lower for non-Hispanic African Americans than other race and ethnicity groups among passenger vehicle occupants age 25 to 69 traveling with children in 2007. This result is from the National Survey of the Use of Booster Seats (NSUBS), the only probability- based nationwide survey that observes seat belt use and collects race and ethnicity. The NSUBS is conducted by the National Center for Statistics and Analysis of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The 2007 NSUBS also found that seat belt use was lower for Hispanics than non-Hispanics among passenger vehicle occupants age 25 to 69 traveling with children. Please note that by design and necessity, the NSUBS survey only collects restraint us of vehicle occupants who are transporting or riding with children under age 13 to a restricted set of site types such as gas stations, day care centers, recreation centers, and restaurants in five fast-food chains, not of all vehicle occupants on the road.

Book Synopsis Restraint Use (seat Belt and Child Passenger Seat) Survey by : Bruce Hernandez
Download or read book Restraint Use (seat Belt and Child Passenger Seat) Survey written by Bruce Hernandez and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Arizona, lack of restraint usage (seat belts and child passenger seats) was a contributing factor to an average of 687 fatalities per year which is nearly 60% of total fatalities. These tragic statistics could be dramatically decreased if effective strategies and educational messages encouraged more people to buckle up. Due to the great opportunity to save lives, increasing restraint usage has been identified as one of five key emphasis areas of Arizona's Strategic Highway Safety Plan. Arizona has seen a restraint usage rate of approximately 80% for the last several years as reported through the annual National Occupant Protection Use Survey (NOPUS). Although there is a good understanding of the reported seat belt usage, there is not a good understanding of who is not using seatbelts and why. To develop effective strategies and education messages to improve seat belt usage, there needs to be a better understanding of these factors. The objectives of this research were to 1) conduct a survey to identify why (or why not) people in Arizona use seatbelts and 2) develop criteria and provide recommendations on the most effective means to get drivers to buckle up.
Book Synopsis Exploring the Methods to Increase Seat Belt Usage in Kansas by : Sunanda Dissanayake
Download or read book Exploring the Methods to Increase Seat Belt Usage in Kansas written by Sunanda Dissanayake and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seat belt usage has frequently been identified as one of the most effective ways of improving highway safety and considered to be particularly useful in reducing fatalities. However, the state of Kansas experiences considerably lower safety belt usage rates compared to many other states and the national average. The Kansas Department of Transportation and other involved parties are interested in improving the usage rates and thereby improve safety of road users in Kansas. Accordingly, the main objective of this study was to explore the methods to increase seat belt usage in Kansas with the intention of reducing huge economic losses to the state in the form of traffic crashes. This objective was achieved by two parallel approaches: (1) By identifying the factors that affect safety belt usage in Kansas so that more effective programs could be developed. (2) By gathering information on attitudes, perceptions, understanding and other related characteristics of Kansans in relation to safety belt use. During the first approach, statistical models were developed to predict state seat belt usage rates based on factors that include demographic characteristics, socio-economic factors and policies/regulations. To supplement this, statistical models predicting traffic fatalities and unrestrained vehicle occupant fatalities as a function of seat belt law and other characteristics mentioned previously were also developed. These models could be used to quantify the effects of enforcing primary seat belt law in saving lives in Kansas. During the second approach, focus group surveys were conducted among Kansans to identify more direct human factor related issues and seat belt usage in Kansas. Focus group surveys of Kansas drivers were a real eye opener, indicating very low understanding regarding the seat belt law, where lower income groups, younger drivers, and minority groups particularly lagged. Stated belt use behavior revealed that females versus males, van users versus pick-up truck drivers, older drivers versus young drivers, non-Hispanics versus Hispanics are more likely to use seat belts. Reasons for non-use included absence of factors which positively affect the decision, types of trips. Even though some of these factors are beyond control, other findings indicate that a considerable percentage of drivers suggest stricter laws and other punishments to improve their own safety, perhaps because they are not able to maintain a high level of self-discipline by themselves.
