摘要: |
Safety restraint use among children has been monitored in Virginia using roadside surveys since the early 1980s. Changes were made in the 2002 survey methodology to allow the survey to reflect the changes in the child restraint law. The age categories previously used in the survey were changed to (1) infants and toddlers 0 through 3 years of age, (2) preschoolers 4 and 5 years old, and (3) children 6 through 15 years old. These categories will allow investigators to continue to analyze the longitudinal restraint use data using the previous age categories (0 through 3 years and 4 through 15 years) and to evaluate the impact of the legislative changes in 2002 using the new age categories (0 through 5 years and 6 through 15 years) when sufficient data are available. |
