To evaluate and compare the user-orientation of Spanish, American and British hospital websites.
A descriptive study of 32 hospital portals (12 Spanish, 10 American and 10 British) was carried out in which the following were analyzed: website readability according to the Flesch Index, websites accessibility using the Web Accessibility Test, and the quality of information provided using the "e-Information Scale of Health Care Centers".
Fifty percent of the user-oriented information quality attributes are met. Readability indices tend to be below 60 (standard readability), and only 10 of the 32 websites meet the accessibility criteria.
Most portals exhibit accessibility problems that favor computer illiteracy. There is a wide variability in terms of website readability and in terms of user-oriented content.
评估并比较西班牙、美国和英国医院网站的用户导向性。
对32个医院门户网站(12个西班牙的、10个美国的和10个英国的)进行描述性研究,分析以下内容:根据弗莱施指数评估网站可读性,使用网络可访问性测试评估网站可访问性,以及使用“医疗保健中心电子信息量表”评估所提供信息的质量。
满足了50%的用户导向性信息质量属性。可读性指数往往低于60(标准可读性),32个网站中只有10个符合可访问性标准。
大多数门户网站存在有利于电脑盲的可访问性问题。网站可读性和用户导向性内容方面存在很大差异。
