A one-hour burn prevention program for grade school children: its approach and success
Abstract
A brief, one-hour program aimed at grade school children combines human moderators, a robot, and cartoons to deliver the burn prevention message. Program efficacy was demonstrated by a pretest and posttest. Performance on the posttest improved with the age of the child.
