Abstract

Internet referrals provide a potential solution to limited staff time in emergency departments for health education. One hundred fifteen adolescents were surveyed and referred to a violence prevention website; 22% logged on the website. Although this study bears replication, Internet referral may be a low-intensity intervention that could compliment other violence prevention strategies among adolescents.
