Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A descriptive study will be conducted to determine whether human subjects are able to install the new feature of the prototype car seat correctly. Participants will be presented with the prototype car seat and a set of basic written instructions and labels to guide their installations. The percentage of participants who use the new feature and use it correctly will be reported. Any installation errors on other parts of the child seat (seat belt, lower anchors, top tether) will also be reported.
