Summary

Abusive head trauma (AHT) is a major cause of infant death and long-term disability, but prevention efforts have had limited success. This online survey of 3,200 French adults aged 18–80 will measure their knowledge of AHT and their behavioral intentions after watching short videos of infant handling. The goal is to identify gaps in public understanding and inform better prevention strategies.

What this could lead to
If this survey reveals gaps in public knowledge, it could help design more effective prevention campaigns to reduce infant head trauma.
What could go wrong
This is a survey, not a treatment trial, so it cannot directly change outcomes. Results may not reflect real-world behavior or apply outside France.
