A predictive model to analyze factors affecting the presence of mild whiplash-associated disorders in minor motor vehicle crashes based on the Korean In-Depth Accidents Study (KIDAS) Database.

Using the predictive model, the results of the external validity analysis showed low sensitivity but high specificity. This predictive model provided meaningful results, with a high success rate for determining no injury to an occupant. Given our study results, future research is needed to create a more accurate predictive model that includes relevant technical and sociological factors.
