We developed a computer-based tailored risk presentation and risk communication aid for colorectal cancer prevention. To evaluate the effectiveness of the tool, we randomized 353 participants to receive different risk presentation formats (relative plus absolute risk vs. absolute risk only vs. none) and different levels of engagement with the risk communication (active vs. passive). Findings suggest the tool to be useful for correcting misperceptions about personal risk. Of those with inaccurate risk perception at baseline, more than half of the participants in intervention groups had corrected risk perceptions at post-test, compared to only 12% in the control group.
我们开发了一种用于结直肠癌预防的基于计算机的定制风险呈现和风险沟通辅助工具。为评估该工具的有效性,我们将353名参与者随机分组,使其接受不同的风险呈现形式(相对风险加绝对风险与仅绝对风险与无风险呈现)以及不同程度的风险沟通参与方式(主动与被动)。研究结果表明该工具有助于纠正对个人风险的误解。在基线时风险认知不准确的参与者中,干预组超过一半的参与者在测试后纠正了风险认知,而对照组只有12%。
