This study compares two different methods of headstand practice. One is a practice progression inspired by breaking (dance) that can be practiced on hard ground and the other is a common trial-and-error method as practiced on gymnastics mats. This study includes analyses of data gathered from field observation, one randomized control trial, and…

It is unknown if basic motorcycle training prevents crashes, injuries, or deaths on public roadways. This research analyzes the participants of the Motorcycle Safety Foundation's "Basic RiderCourse updated" to understand risk-taking tendencies, personal protective equipment usage, and favorability of the "Basic RiderCourse."…

Despite increasing emphasis on Prevention through Design (PtD) education, the extent to which it should be integrated into tertiary curricula remains unclear. To address this, a scoping review of the literature related to PtD education in the construction domain was conducted. A total of 27 articles identified through the Scopus and Web of Science…

Water safety programs to protect children from water-related accidents and increase their awareness of the risk factor crucial to maintaining safety. This study examined the behavior of 48 junior high school students after an intervention program on water safety in a river using the Rohrmann's Risk Communication Model and the Analysis, Design,…

The construction industry has struggled with a disappointing safety record, with workers often failing to identify hazards on construction sites. While virtual reality (VR) training has shown promise in improving hazard recognition skills, it is essential to address not only the ability to identify hazards but also the factors influencing workers'…

Educational interventions can help people acquire knowledge of the anatomy of the back, how to lift and carry objects effectively, and potential risk factors of low back pain (Sowah et al., 2018). Health promotion is essential in improving disability, pain, as well as the overall quality of life (Albaladejo et al., 2010). Young adults have not…

Purpose: This quality improvement project aimed to provide an educational intervention for the El Rio Pascua clinic staff regarding the importance and process of screening for future fall risk in adults 65 and older (older adults). Background: Falls are the leading cause of injury death in older adults in the United States, accounting for…

Objective: Falls are a significant problem for many older patients after hospital discharge. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fidelity and impact of a tailored patient fall prevention education programme from the perspective of the educators who delivered the programme. Design: Qualitative sequential design. Setting: Three…

The current safety education and training system has a number of problems, namely that the actual risks in the field are not reflected and that workers cannot be engaged in safety education. Therefore, we conducted a study to build a VR-based safety education system that reflects the problems actually occurring in the field. The risk points of the…

Work in industrial contexts is confronted with various risks, which are further amplified by the trend toward Industry 4.0. Approaches are needed to examine safety communication (SC) in such changing environments. Existing studies focus on individual SC means and quantitative evaluation measures. This article proposes a qualitative approach for…

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to co-design a falls prevention education programme with aged care home residents and staff and evaluate its feasibility. The intention of providing the education programme was to assist residents to stay safe and mobile whilst reducing their risk of falling. Design/methodology/approach: A two-phase mixed…

Background: Fall prevention education can increase knowledge of fall risks and promote behavior changes to help reduce the incidence of falls among older adults. Fall Prevention Bingo (FPB) was created as an engaging tool to deliver fall prevention education to older adults. Purpose: To evaluate the effects of FPB on older adults' knowledge of…

Sociologists of science have noted that the institutional cultures and practices of research tend to de-emphasize the risks produced in the lab, resulting in injuries and deaths in recent lab accidents and increased dangers for surrounding communities. In response to these accidents, science ethics and policy increasingly focus on risk management.…
