BACKGROUND: This paper reports the development and testing of a construct
measuring parental fire safety behaviours for planning escape from a house fire.
METHODS: Latent variable modelling of data on parental-reported fire safety
behaviours and plans for escaping from a house fire and multivariable logistic
regression to quantify the association between groups defined by the latent
variable modelling and parental-report of having a plan for escaping from a house
fire. Data comes from 1112 participants in a cluster randomised controlled trial
set in children's centres in 4 study centres in the UK. RESULTS: A two class
model provided the best fit to the data, combining responses to five fire safety
planning behaviours. The first group ('more behaviours for escaping from a house
fire') comprised 86% of participants who were most likely to have a torch, be
aware of how their smoke alarm sounds, to have external door and window keys
accessible, and exits clear. The second group ('fewer behaviours for escaping
from a house fire') comprised 14% of participants who were less likely to report
these five behaviours. After adjusting for potential confounders, participants
allocated to the 'more behaviours for escaping from a house fire group were 2.5
times more likely to report having an escape plan (OR 2.48; 95% CI 1.59-3.86)
than those in the "fewer behaviours for escaping from a house fire" group.
CONCLUSIONS: Multiple fire safety behaviour questions can be combined into a
single binary summary measure of fire safety behaviours for escaping from a house
fire. Our findings will be useful to future studies wishing to use a single
measure of fire safety planning behaviour as measures of outcome or exposure.
