"What does 'hazard' mean?" A survey of Sydney schoolschildren.
A survey of 1,348 Syndey school children, aged 10 to 13 years, carried out during October and November, 1973, and February, 1974, indicated that approximately 30% associated the word "hazard" with danger, risk or disaster; 11% associated it specifically with ill health; 16% defined it directly as "habit"; and a further 15% defined hazard as being "like a bad habit".
