Abstract:
Objective:To investigate child injury prevention practice and associated factors among parents of primary school students.
Methods:Parents of 2 577 students were selected from three primary schools in three administrative regions of Shanghai by multi stage sampling method between May and June in 2021. Questionnaire survey was administered to parents based on the Index System for Assessing Parent s Ability on Child Injury Prevention, which was developed previously by the present research group. Results were converted into standardized scores for descriptive analysis, and the original scores were analyzed by multiple linear regression model.
Results:The standardized scores of parents on environment safety, product safety, behaviors and skills and psychological safety were (0.91±0.08)(0.93±0.08)(0.97±0.04)(0.95±0.05), respectively. The standardized score of general ability was (0.95±0.04). The standardized scores on knowledge, attitude and practice of injury prevention were (0.99±0.03)( 0.97± 0.05)(0.89±0.10), respectively. Mothers performances were generally better than fathers . Parents with higher education performed better than those with lower education. Parents with "being a parent" in mind performed better on child injury prevention.
Conclusion:There is a gap between practice with the knowledge as well as attitude towards child injury prevention among parents of primary school students. Parenting role, educational background and parental awareness of the importance of parental role are primary factors that affect child injury prevention practice.
