Abstract

A standard empirical test procedure was applied to the study of child restraint misuse. A pilot group of 20 parent- couples was presented with a child restraint, and observed while installing the seat. Two serious errors were observed: the object might have failed standard acceptance criteria. The study concludes that such misuse testing can be performed by lay investigators.
