“…One reason could have been the effect size of the relationship between cognition and auditory detection is small and would require obtaining a much larger sample. In fact, other studies have suggested relations between cognition and pedestrian skills could be difficult to detect (Kovesdi & Barton, 2013). A second explanation could be the wrong aspect of cognition was examined.…”

We examined detection and direction determination of auditory cues from a pedestrian environment among a sample of older and younger adults. Review of relevant research suggests normal aging is associated with declines in physical, cognitive, and perceptual abilities. Relatively, few studies have examined the impact of such developmental changes on pedestrian safety among older adults, and none have examined such factors in relation to use of auditory cues. Thirty-five younger and 35 older adults completed cognitive measures and a pedestrian auditory detection task. Some results by speed were similar to past research that examined younger samples. Interactions were discovered between age and speed conditions within the auditory task. Results are discussed in the context of past research and with regard to informing future injury prevention efforts.

“…Some elements are environmental, while others are intrapersonal, for example, sex differences, 5 personality characteristics, 6 cognitive development, 7 and misperception of ability. 8,9 Such studies point to injury as dependent on a cluster of predictive risk factors. However, we must be mindful that the process preceding injury risk behaviors is not merely a collection of orthogonal risk factors.…”

BASE: Pragmatic Injury Prevention for Practitioners

Unintentional injury remains a leading health problem in developed nations, making injury prevention imperative. Practitioners are primary stakeholders in the injury prevention process but rarely can devote significant time to complicated prevention efforts. Furthermore, theory-based approaches to support injury prevention are less common than atheoretical approaches. We propose a simple method for injury prevention grounded in concepts found in antecedent models. Barriers, attitudes, social context, and environmental factors (or BASE) are suggested as a simple injury prevention model practitioners can follow when working with patients. We present each component of BASE and offer examples of how the approach can be applied to risk factors associated with several types of injury risk behavior.
