The objective of the analysis is to determine the overall effectiveness of child restraints when used, rather than to evaluate FMVSS 213 in particular. This required an analysis of subsets of mass accident data involving 4 year old and younger child occupants of known injury level, seating position and restraint usage in passenger cars. Evaluations were based on 21,837 cases in New York (1974, 1977), 6,738 cases in New Jersey) and 3,766 cases in Idaho (1976-1978). Contingency table data were subjected to log-linear modeling and adjustment to minimize potential confounding effects and allow direct comparison of injury rates between children using child restraints, children using seat-belts, and unrestrained children.
