Reported helmet use was highest at 11 years and decreased as children\u2019s age increased. Use was positively associated with other healthy behaviors, with parental involvement, and with per capita gross domestic product of the country. It is negatively associated with risk taking behaviors. Countries reported to have interventions promoting helmet use, exemplified by helmet giveaway programmes, had greater frequency of reported helmet use than those without programmes.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> Bicycle helmet use among young adolescents varies greatly between countries; however, helmet use does not reach 50% in any country. Age is the most significant individual factor associated with helmet for helmet using countries. The observation that some helmet promotion programmes are reported for countries with relatively higher student helmet use and no programmes reported for the lowest helmet use countries, suggests the possibility of a relation and the need for objective evaluation of programme effectiveness.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1136\/ip.2004.007013","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,10,3]],"date-time":"2005-10-03T11:33:36Z","timestamp":1128339216000},"page":"288-293","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":41,"title":["Factors associated with bicycle helmet use among young adolescents in a multinational sample"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"K S","family":"Klein","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"D","family":"Thompson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P C","family":"Scheidt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M D","family":"Overpeck","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L A","family":"Gross","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,10,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025092501564693000_11.5.288.1","unstructured":"National Safe Kids Campaign.
