Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

Cognitive Testing

Participant comprehension will be measured qualitatively through cognitive testing. In cognitive testing interviews, participants are asked to "think aloud" as they review and react to new information. Participants will be presented with the storyboard (mock-up) versions of the content and asked to describe in their own words what the information means to them. Cognitive interviews may include questions about content such as length, clarity of the language, and helpfulness of the educational material. A trained research team member will ask probing questions throughout interviews as needed. Based on patient feedback, modifications will be made iteratively to the content to ensure the content is understood and interpreted as intended. There is no post-survey for cognitive testing.

Time frame
Up to 1.5 hours

Usability Testing

Usability will be measured qualitatively using a Usability Interview Guide. Usability will also be measured using the System Usability Scale. Acceptability will be measured with the Ottawa Acceptability Measures. Knowledge will be measured pre- and post- session using knowledge questions developed by the investigators and refined during cognitive testing.

Time frame
Up to 1.5 hours
