Abstract

This study describes the readability levels of written instructions for methods of contraception. Materials studied include patient package inserts (PPIs) from commercial manufacturers and generic instructions (GIs) written by staff members in selected health agencies in the community and by health information publishers. Written materials were analyzed using Dale-Chall, Fry, Fog, Flesh, Flesch-Kincaid and SMOG formulas for readability. Readability levels ranged from elementary school (grade 5.5) to college (grade 13.6). Required comprehension levels of the PPIs were higher than those of the GIs for three of the four groups of contraceptives studied (diaphragms, pills, condoms).

摘要

本研究描述了避孕方法书面说明的可读性水平。所研究的材料包括商业制造商提供的患者包装插页（PPI）以及社区中选定卫生机构的工作人员和健康信息出版商编写的通用说明（GI）。使用戴尔 - 查尔、弗莱、雾度、弗莱什、弗莱什 - 金凯德和SMOG公式对书面材料进行可读性分析。可读性水平从小学（5.5年级）到大学（13.6年级）不等。在所研究的四组避孕方法（子宫帽、避孕药、避孕套）中，三组的PPI要求的理解水平高于GI。
