Abstract

This study demonstrated the benefits of providing knowledge of results (KR) in addition to goal setting in a strategy to improve occupational safety in a farm machinery manufacturing firm. An analysis of variance (in a 56-week long multiple baseline investigation) revealed positive significant main effects for each of the interventions (safety rule training, goal setting, and KR).
