结局指标
主要结局
The Dementia Knowledge Assessment Tool (DKAT2)
时间窗: Participants will complete the DKAT2 at baseline, and 1-30 days after reviewing the toolkit at follow-up telephone encounter. The follow-up assessment window may extend 30 additional days if participants wish to remain in the study.
Dementia knowledge will be assessed using the 21-item Dementia Knowledge Assessment Tool Version 2 (DKAT2), which was developed to assess foundation-level knowledge of dementia. Each item has three response options: Yes, No, and Don't Know. Each correct response is assigned 1 point, while an incorrect or Don't Know response is assigned 0 points. Total scores range from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating greater dementia knowledge. The baseline and follow up assessment may be completed either independently using a paper questionnaire or as an interviewer-administered questionnaire by study personnel. The change in total DKAT2 score from baseline to post-intervention will be assessed.
Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool (PEMAT)
时间窗: PEMAT will be completed 1-30 days after reviewing the toolkit at follow-up telephone encounter along with DKAT2. The follow-up assessment window may extend 30 additional days if participants wish to remain in the study.
Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool (PEMAT), will be used to assess understandability and actionability of print educational material. The PEMAT provides two domain scores: understandability and actionability. Understandability is assessed using 17 items, and actionability is assessed using 7 items. Each applicable item is scored as 1 (agree) or 0 (disagree). Domain scores are calculated as the percentage of applicable items receiving a score of 1. Scores range from 0% to 100% for each domain, with higher scores indicating greater understandability and actionability. Understandability and actionability scores will be reported separately. The PEMAT may be completed as an interviewer-administered questionnaire by study personnel.
