Proposed Project: Human Behavior in
Fire Study—New—National Center for
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description:
This project will characterize the
behaviors of individuals who were
involved in a residential fire, and
determine which behaviors are
associated with injuries sustained in the
fire incident. Behaviors related to fire
escape planning and practice, smoke
alarm installation and maintenance,
physical and visual access to escape
routes, etc., will be studied. In the
United States each year, there are
approximately 400,000 residential fires,
with 14,000 non-fatal and 3,000 fatal

civilian injuries. In line with Healthy
People 2010 objectives, NCIPC works to
reduce and eliminate non-fatal and fatal
injuries from residential fires. In order
to develop effective fire-related injury
prevention programs, a better
understanding of human behavior in
fires is needed.
The design of this study will be a
matched-pair, case-control study. Cases
will be defined as individuals who were
injured in a residential fire and controls
will be individuals who were involved
in a residential fire, but were not
injured. Fire incidents involving a
fatality will be excluded from this
study. Local fire departments
throughout the United States will
submit fire incident reports to study
personnel, who will select incidents
based on geographical location. Further
screening for eligibility will be done
using a brief telephone interview. For
those selected, interviewers will
conduct in-depth, computer-assisted
face-to-face interviews with
participants. The sequence of events
surrounding the fire and the behaviors
of interviewees will be ascertained
using the Behavioral Sequence
Interview Technique. In addition,
information on the nature of injuries
sustained; characteristics of the fire and
home structure; other occupants
present; previous fire experiences;
safety training; and demographics on
the persons interviewed will be
collected. The only cost to the
respondents is the time involved to
complete the screening and/or face-toface interviews.
