简要总结
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) recommendations are usually developed for healthcare professionals (for example Doctors, health organizations, etc.). It is important to make sure that these recommendations can be used and understood by everyone. This study aims to make COVID-19 recommendations more accessible and understandable for parents and caregivers, adults, and youth.
详细描述
This is a two-arm superiority randomized controlled trial. The primary objective is to compare the understanding of key guideline information between the Plain Language Recommendation (PLR) (intervention) and the Standard Language Version (SLV- original recommendation as available in the published guideline) (comparison). Secondary outcomes include accessibility and usability of the information, satisfaction with the presentation, intended behavior to follow the information in the recommendation, and preference toward one of the two presentations. Recruitment will be global for the three populations (youth, parents, and adults), using three different online links. Data will be collected using a survey with 1:1 randomization to the intervention and subsequent demographic questions. Superiority will be declared if a minimal difference of 10% in understanding is achieved between the two groups (an average difference of 1 correct answer).

Understanding with Multiple Choice Questions
时间窗: Duration of survey (approximately 25 minutes) at baseline
The primary outcome is understanding. Understanding is defined as the correct comprehension of key guideline content (year of publication, intent of the recommendation, direction of recommendation, etc.). This outcome will be measured with seven multiple-choice questions about key concepts in the recommendation with four to six response options for each question and only one correct answer (total minimum score of 0, maximum score of 7).
