Abstract

We evaluated the effect of a trans-theoretical model-based intervention on child safety seat (CSS)‒use behaviors among parents of newborns in Shantou, China. Parents' knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy scores on CSS use were significantly higher at one, three, and six months after the intervention compared with scores at baseline. Parents' stage of CSS use also advanced as the intervention progressed. The trans-theoretical model‒based intervention and evidence generated from this study may provide guidance for future individualized interventions to improve CSS use.
