Article Synopsis
- The West Coast Dungeness crab fishery has a high risk of fatal accidents, prompting the Fishermen Led Injury Prevention Program (FLIPP) to investigate nonfatal injuries and safety perceptions among fishermen.
- Focus groups were conducted to analyze reported injuries, discuss safety risks, and guide the development of a relevant survey for fishermen.
- Findings revealed insights into injury risks and current safety practices while effectively involving fishermen in shaping injury prevention initiatives.
Systematic framework to classify the status of research on spinal cord injury and physical activity.
Arch Phys Med Rehabil
October 2013
Objectives: To systematically classify the physical activity research for individuals with a spinal cord injury by using the behavioral epidemiologic framework; and to identify where the physical activity research for individuals with a spinal cord injury has focused between 2000 and 2012.
Design: Relevant research was identified and then categorized into 1 of 5 phases by following the coding rules of the behavioral epidemiology framework. Phase 1 studies link physical activity and health outcomes, phase 2 studies validate or develop measures of physical activity, phase 3 studies identify factors that influence behavior or examine explanatory theories of behavior, phase 4 studies evaluate interventions, and phase 5 studies disseminate health promotion programs or policies and translate research into practice.
