Abstract
The purpose of this study was to (a) explore the relationship between the lack of everyday routines and children's unintentional injuries, (b) examine two mechanisms of effect through which lack of routines might operate, children's sleep and maternal supervision, and (c) explore the influence of maternal fatigue in routines and maternal supervision. The sample comprised 264 mothers and their 3-year-old children. Routines were not directly related to children's injuries, but they moderated the relationship between maternal supervision and injuries. Lack of supervision was positively related to injuries only for children with infrequent everyday routines. Infrequent everyday routines were also related to inadequate children's sleep and maternal fatigue was inversely related to routines and maternal supervision.
