Summary
This document presents the proceedings of a 1998 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration conference focused on measuring injury outcomes, particularly from motor vehicle crashes. The event aimed to share current knowledge among industry, government, and academic partners and to develop a research agenda for future work. Presentations covered various measurement approaches, including health status measures, quality-adjusted life years, societal costs, functional capacity indices, and behavioral effects. Breakout sessions and participant comments identified key gaps in the field, such as the need for better methods to quantify psychosocial outcomes and estimate the results of multiple injuries. The synthesis concluded with recommendations to update economic cost estimates, improve data linkage techniques, and clarify the relationship between actual injury outcomes and those derived from testing models.
Key finding
The conference synthesis identified specific priorities for future research, including updating economic injury costs, developing methods to quantify psychosocial outcomes, and improving the understanding of relationships between actual injuries and test model implications.
