| description | Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate parents' perception and behaviors in the case of a child safety accident. Methods: The participants were 254 parents of children under 12 years old. Data were collected from October 12 to November 25, 2016 using self-report questionnaire.

The overall difference in categories of perception and behaviors about child safety accidents according to demographic characteristics of participants, was developmental age (F=5.616, p =.004). Most of the categories had significant correlation with other categories. Conclusion: Findings in this study show parental perception and behaviors were relatively high.
