Pediatric psychology offers significant contributions to the multidisciplinary efforts necessary to prevent injuries and reduce harm to children. This Task Force Report reviews epidemiological data, characteristics of children's injuries, passive and active interventions for reducing injuries, and research, policy, and evaluation issues for individual and community injury control efforts. Directions for future pediatric psychology efforts are identified and placed in a context of collaborative efforts required to advance the control of children's injuries. | lld:pubmed |
