A randomized controlled trial evaluating the impact of the Supervising for Home Safety program on parent appraisals of injury risk and need to actively supervise.

Introduction: A video to promote parents' appreciation of young children's risk of injury and need for active supervision was recently developed (Morrongiello, Zdzieborski, Sandomierski, & Lasenby-Lessard, 2009). Integrating this video with tailored activities resulted in the Supervising for Home Safety program. The current randomized, controlled trial evaluated the efficacy of this program for increasing parental appraisals of child-injury risk and the need to actively supervise 2- through 5-year-old children.
