Abstract

In this study rear-facing restrains were installed on an auto seat with a seat slope representative of the average slope of the seats in a survey of 1978 and 1979 automobiles. An infant was placed in each restrains which was then positioned at the manufacturer's recommended reclining angle or angles. The restrains were studied to evaluate the back and head support provided by each.
