RESEARCH in school health and safety education during the past six years was largely descriptive in character and dealt primarily with the health needs of individuals and the status of health and safety education in the schools. Little research was reported during this period on the effectiveness of educational programs in promoting desirable health behavior in school children.From the point of view of health education in its broader scope, an increasing amount of research was devoted to the social aspects of health. For example, the Inventory of Social and Economic Research in Health (43) outlined over 250 research projects focusing primarily upon social and economic factors related to health problems and health programs. In the field of safety education the literature showed a growing emphasis on individual attitudes and group behavior in the total accident picture.
