TY - JOUR PY - 1988// TI - Community planning and the prevention of alcohol involved traffic problems : An application of computer simulation technology JO - Evaluation and program planning A1 - Holder, Harold D.

SP - 267 EP - 277 VL - 11 IS - 3 N2 - This paper is an assessment of the application of computer simulation to community-based planning for the prevention of alcohol-involved traffic problems in the County of San Diego, CA. In this project, a computer model was used to assist local planners in (a) documenting the extent of problems, (b) better understanding the complex system which yields alcohol-involved problems, and (c) projecting the potential effects of various prevention strategies. Advantages and limitations of such technology in community planning are discussed.
