研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to determine if a new smartphone application helps to decrease distracted driving, and to learn about parent and teen perspectives about the application
详细描述
This 3-group randomized controlled trial aims to (1) evaluate the frequency of smartphone use among young drivers and their parents/caregivers while driving; and (2) determine if the LifeSaver mobile app reduces the rate of smartphone use while driving. Eligible participants will be licensed teenage drivers between the ages of 16 and 18 years, and a parent/caregiver. The app will be downloaded and installed on both parent/caregivers' and teens' phones to monitor phone use while in a vehicle for 8 weeks.
