The Effect Of The 'Tendency To Report Injuries' On Minor Accident Statistics, James A. Barker May 1958

The Effect Of The 'Tendency To Report Injuries' On Minor Accident Statistics, James A. Barker

Masters Theses

This study is concerned with the effect of the "tendency to report injuries" on minor accident statistics. Assuming that individuals with the largest number of voluntary visits for nonoccupational illnesses to the Dispensary would be those who most readily report to the Dispensary in the event of minor injuries, the individuals may be defined as those who have a tendency to report injuries. The hypothesis to be tested in this thesis is: The tendency to report injuries has no significant effect on the systematic variance in reported injuries between two successive one-year exposure intervals.
