Abstract
This study aims to understand preconceptions about aviation safety and explore foundational data for developing age-specific transportation safety, particularly aviation safety, education courses and content throughout the lifespan. Targeting elementary school 3rd-grade students, who initiate basic logical reasoning, the research employs semi-structured questions, descriptive interviews, and drawing techniques to assess preconceptions about aviation safety in the early stages of childhood. The findings reveal six types of preconception awareness: causal factors of accidents, forms of accidents, safety rules, risk and safety factors, awareness of seat safety, and visual perception of airplane safety. In conclusion, the study proposes the utilization of these preconceptions through a comparative analysis with scientific concepts in actual aviation safety education. This information can inform the development of educational content and instructional designs for aviation safety in the future, tailored to the developmental stages of students.
