移动的技术的使用对青少年的沟通、获取和信息/资源交付产生了巨大影响。青少年经常使用移动的技术。本研究的目的是了解青少年在日常生活中的健康信息需求，并评估他们如何满足自己的信息需求。我们给60名青少年提供了30天的无限制短信和数据的智能手机。每部智能手机都预装了与哮喘、肥胖、人类免疫缺陷病毒和饮食有关的应用程序。我们每周发送3次短信，询问以下问题：（1）您今天对自己的健康有哪些问题？(2)您在哪里寻找答案（移动的设备、移动的应用程序、在线、朋友、书籍或父母）？(3)你的问题得到回答了吗？如何回答？(4)还有别的吗？我们的参与者年龄范围为13 - 18岁，37名（62%）参与者为男性，22名（37%）为女性。在60名参与者中，71%（42/60）的参与者认为自己是西班牙裔，77%（46/60）的参与者经常使用移动的设备。我们有90%（1935/2150）的回复率。参与者共发送了1935条短信来回答生态瞬时评估问题。青少年共发送了421条与健康信息需求相关的短信，516条与信息来源相关的短信，这些短信与父母，朋友，在线，移动的应用程序，教师或教练有关。短信技术是实时评估青少年健康行为的有用工具。青少年愿意使用短信报告他们的健康信息。这项研究的结果有助于解决青少年的健康信息需求的证据基础。尤其要注意与饮食和运动有关的问题。这些发现可能是未来青少年肥胖预防计划的预兆。
Use of mobile technology has made a huge impact on communication, access, and information/resource delivery to adolescents. Mobile technology is frequently used by adolescents. The purpose of this study was to understand the health information needs of adolescents in the context of their everyday lives and to assess how they meet their information needs. We gave 60 adolescents smartphones with unlimited text messaging and data for 30 days. Each smartphone had applications related to asthma, obesity, human immunodeficiency virus, and diet preinstalled on the phone. We sent text messages 3 times per week and asked the following questions: (1) What questions did you have about your health today? (2) Where did you look for an answer (mobile device, mobile application, online, friend, book, or parent)? (3) Was your question answered and how? (4) Anything else? Our participants ranged from 13-18 years of age, 37 (62%) participants were male and 22 (37%) were female. Of the 60 participants, 71% (42/60) participants identified themselves as Hispanic and 77% (46/60) were frequent users of mobile devices. We had a 90% (1935/2150) response rate to our text messages. Participants sent a total of 1935 text messages in response to the ecological momentary assessment questions. Adolescents sent a total of 421 text messages related to a health information needs, and 516 text messages related to the source of information to the answers of their questions, which were related to parents, friends, online, mobile apps, teachers, or coaches. Text messaging technology is a useful tool for assessing adolescents’ health behavior in real-time. Adolescents are willing to use text messaging to report their health information. Findings from this study contribute to the evidence base on addressing the health information needs of adolescents. In particular, attention should be paid to issues related to diet and exercise. These findings may be the harbinger for future obesity prevention programs for adolescents.
