DESCRIPTION: (provided by applicant): In 1999, the North American Guidelines for Children's Agricultural Tasks (NAGCAT) were published. Based on expert opinion and child development theories (but not empirical evidence), the Guidelines are intended to help parents (and other adult Care givers) in assigning developmentally-appropriate jobs to youth 7-18 years of age who work in agriculture. The effectiveness of these guidelines has yet to be fully evaluated -especially in regards to their work-related injury risk reduction potential. The overarching goal of the proposed research is to evaluate the effectiveness of the NAGCA T as an approach to the primary prevention of childhood agricultural injury. We are therefore proposing to conduct a randomized controlled trial having an experimental time series design, permitting a rigorous test of NAGCAT's effectiveness. We expect our findings to provide informative evidence-based answers to the following questions. First, to what extent can compliance with the NAGCA T be maximized through a theory-based dissemination strategy? Second, to what extent can compliance with the NAGCAT actually reduce the risk of work-related injury among youth exposed to agricultural hazards? Third, to inform future NAGCA T dissemination efforts, what parental characteristics are most strongly associated with maximal compliance? The panel's hypothesis is that hazard-exposed youth in households who receive messages about the NAGCA T based on Protection Motivation Theory will exhibit greater compliance / conformity to the NAGCAT and lower injury rates than youth in control households. Specific Aims are: 1. Quantitatively assess the extent to which youth working conditions and safety behaviors are in compliance/conformity with the NAGCAT . 2. Evaluate the effectiveness of a dissemination strategy based on Protection Motivation Theory in terms of changes in youth working conditions and safety behaviors. 3. Quantify risk of work related injury among a sample of youth exposed to agricultural hazards. 4. Taking into account the experimental time series design of the proposed study, conduct statistical analyses to evaluate the functional relationship between adherence to the Guidelines and work related injury risk. 5. Identify parental characteristics and attitudes that most strongly predict high compliance / conformity with the NAGCAT.

描述：（申请人提供）：1999年，发布了《儿童农业任务指南》（NAGCAT）。根据专家意见和儿童发展理论（但不是经验证据），该准则旨在帮助父母（和其他成人护理人员）为7-18岁农业工作的年轻人分配适合发展的工作。这些准则的有效性尚未得到充分评估，尤其是在与工作相关的伤害风险降低潜力方面。 拟议的研究的总体目标是评估纳吉卡T的有效性，以此作为对儿童农业损伤的主要预防方法。因此，我们建议进行具有实验时间序列设计的随机对照试验，从而对Nagcat的有效性进行严格的测试。我们希望我们的发现能为以下问题提供信息的基于证据的答案。首先，通过基于理论的传播策略在多大程度上可以在多大程度上符合nagca t？其次，在多大程度上可以在多大程度上遵守NAGCAT实际上降低了受到农业危害的年轻人的与工作有关的伤害的风险？第三，为了告知未来的长子传播工作，哪些父母特征与最大依从性最密切相关？ 该小组的假设是，基于保护动机理论，收到关于nagca t信息的家庭的危害暴露的年轻人比对控制家庭中的青年人表现出更大的依从性 /对纳格卡特的依从性 /一致性。具体目的是： 1。定量评估青年工作条件和安全行为符合纳格达的程度。 2。根据保护动机理论，根据青年工作条件和安全行为的变化来评估传播策略的有效性。 3。量化暴露于农业危害的青年样本中与工作相关的伤害的风险。 4.考虑到拟议研究的实验时间序列设计，进行统计分析以评估遵守指南与工作相关伤害风险之间的功能关系。 5。确定最强烈预测高依从性 /符合NAGCAT的父母特征和态度。
