Description
Unintentional injuries are the leading cause of death to children in most industrialized nations. While injuries are influenced by a complex interplay of variables, parents are often viewed as the most effective targets for preventing injuries. In the present study, a mediational model that outlines potential pathways among parental cognitions, parenting behaviors, and children’s risk of injury was tested. Parental supervision was hypothesized as a mediator between parental cognitions and children’s injury risk. Results from this study did not support the hypothesized mediational model; mediation could not be demonstrated because the pathway from parental supervision to child injury risk was not significant. Potential explanations for this nonsignificant pathway are discussed, and a revised model that incorporates supervision attributes as well as context-specific supervision behaviors is presented. Potential parental sex differences were also explored. Replicating previous research by Lewis, DiLillo, and Peterson (2004), fathers were more likely than mothers to endorse the notion that minor injuries have developmental benefits for children. However, parental attitudes about developmental benefits of injuries were not associated with parental supervision attributes or children’s risk for injury. The present study also offers insights into specific behavioral mechanisms that may explain why boys are at an increased risk of injury than girls. Specifically, results from hierarchical regression analyses revealed that the relationship between child sex and child injury risk became nonsignificant in the context of parental reports of child externalizing behavior problems. The present findings have implications for future research and intervention programs that target parental influences of children’s injury risk.
